ssh/telnet into the box, su to root, and run the shutdown command.

Cheers

Make sure you understand the shutdown command options - default shutdown put the server into single user mode on console only. You might need the -i option to reboot instead of using any of the options that would leave the remote server out of your reach.

Very good advice, RTM!

init state 6 will cause the server to reboot and come up to whatever runlevel is specified in /etc/inittab as initdefault (probably 3).

So a command such as
shutdown -y -g0 -i6

should do the trick - you might want to set the grace period (0 secs here) to something a little more forgiving for your users!
