Sorry, I didn't include the entire output last time.  Here it is:


Matching Defaults entries for rob on this host:
    env_reset, mail_badpass,
    secure_path=/usr/local/sbin\:/usr/local/bin\:/usr/sbin\:/usr/bin\:/sbin\:/bin

User rob may run the following commands on this host:
    (ALL) ALL
    (root) NOPASSWD: /sbin/shutdown


Anyway, everything's been working well for a week now.  Thanks for the hints.
