I tried out the following sequence: reboot -f "now" I had no reaction. Then I typed shutdown now No reaction too. Then I closed the remote console and went back to my room. My computer was rebooting. So remote shutdown is working, but in a bit strange (and slow) way. This summer I've been shutdowning from a remote console a lot, and everything worked fine, so I wonder what's different now.
