Hello,
We've been getting strange reboots which were formerly attributed to a a possible bad UPS. This is a brand new install (I know anything is possible, but..) Does this look strange?

Well, init runlevel 6 is (intentional) reboot. Nothing strange here other than you not knowing who reboots your machine. Which raises the question whether (a) other people know your root password, (b) anyone can use ctrl-alt-del if it's not disabled, or (c) kdm lets anyone shut down the machine. (a), (b) and (c) all considered insecure ... ;-) Check the login entries ("last") who was logged in at the reboot times and beat him/her up (unless it was a cracker).
