How to shutdown a server that's configured to use XRDP for Remote Desktop [Ubuntu 10.14]?
I've configured a server to use XRDP as my remote client, instead of VNC. My problem lies in the fact that I can not remotely shutdown or restart my server from within XRDP. Choosing the shutdown or restart option just logs me out of the server, but leaves the server running. Is there a way to force it to use the correct commands, rather than logging me out?

Have you tried getting a command prompt on the server then running sudo shutdown -r now to reboot and sudo shutdown -h now to shutdown the server?
