The setenv command is used in csh compatible shells like zsh. If that's
what you want, you could set your default shell. Otherwise, Fedora
defaults to using the bash shell which is more like sh. You could read
the man page: man bash. Setting the path for all users can be done
in /etc/profile or /etc/profile.d/.

Generally speaking, /sbin is not on your path unless you are logged in
as root, and only the root user is allowed to use shutdown (unless you
have /etc/shutdown.allow). Are you connected as root when you issue the
shutdown command?
