Try the FAQ,

	/usr/share/doc/FAQ/FAQ136.html

It says,

8.21. How do I keep Control-Alt-Delete from rebooting the system?

   Edit the keymap you are using for the console and replace the boot
   keywords with nop. The default keymap is
   /usr/share/syscons/keymaps/us.iso.kbd. You may have to instruct
   /etc/rc.conf to load this keymap explicitly for the change to take
   effect. Of course if you are using an alternate keymap for your
   country, you should edit that one instead.
