This is a bad idea from a security standpoint. If your server is local,
login as root and type shutdown. If the system is remote telnet to the box,
login, su to root and type reboot. If you use shutdown remotely, there is no
way to restart the server.

I am not a security expert.  Check with others to get their opinion on
whether this is the best approach.
