Determine which shell your users are getting by default (/etc/adduser.conf, or better, /etc/passwd) and check the man page for the history-controlling environmental variables and "set" commands. Then investigate how the users have these set and maybe how they got set (shell startup scripts). Some scripts come from "/usr/share/skel/", others are in /etc/.
