How to find out why/when a server is mysteriously powering down?

$

I have a box running Fedora 14, which is being used as quite an important NFS server. Every few days it mysteriously shuts down. What's the best way of finding out why this happens? In particular, is there anything in /var/log which is definitely a record of e.g. what was happening in dmesg when the computer last shut down.

(Major services running on this computer are NFS, Apache, MythTV)

Many thanks in advance for any help.
