  After you login, type shutdown -h -r -n 00:30(set time 1 minute ahead of current time). The -r is for restart. Leave it out if you just want to shutdown. I figured this out on my own and could only get the shutdown process to actually work by adding the -n switch which is for setting a time for the shutdown. I usually just set it for 1 minute ahead of the current time. The time is in military time.

  Just adding a correction. To restart from the command line prompt type the shutdown command with the -r (restart) switch and -n (time to restart). To shutdown the Mac from the command line type the shutdown command then -h switch and the -n (time to restart)switch.
  
  Example:
  
  shutdown -r -n 21:36

  To have the system shutdown/reboot immediately, just append now to the command.
  
  shutdown -r now
