[Klug-general] rebooting remote server

[Dan Attwood]

the uptime command works fine

switching back to the shutdown one though gives me:



debug1: client_input_channel_req: channel 0 rtype exit-status reply 0
debug1: client_input_channel_req: channel 0 rtype eow at openssh.com reply 0
shutdown: Need to be root
debug1: channel 0: free: client-session, nchannels 1
Connection to 10.0.100.38 closed.
