Depends on what kind of auditors you are getting. For e.g. SOX Auditors don't really look at the system, they just look at the process and procedures.
http://www.bastille-linux.org/ is good place to start on securing the OS.

I am Linux System Administrator at a telecom provider. Our customer inform us to send soon independent security auditors to have a look at our Linux systems. They will have a root password and make an in deep analysis of the systems.
I wish to prepare. What "commands" and "config files" they will look? Are there Linux Security Guidelines? They wont use automated tools.
