Author How to restart SuSE from bash shell prompt?

Simple question - how do I restart the SuSE Linux server from the
command prompt?

I've recently run Bastille and now can't seem to restart the server
using the root password in X windows. I get "PAM-listfile: Refused
user root for service xdm". I have no idea which option in Bastille
did this to me!

Thanks

Nevermind - got it! "init 6"

Sheesh! Linux is just NOT intuitive (for NetWare the commands are
"restart server" or "reset server")

"reboot" or "shutdown -r now" should have also worked, but I've never
used Bastille.
