Q. I've just installed Ubuntu Linux on my computer. I'd like to know - how to shutdown Ubuntu box over ssh session?

A. If you are not using GUI, you can run halt or shutdown command to powerdown box.
shutdown command
shutdown arranges for the system to be brought down in a safe way. All logged-in users are notified that the system is going down and, within the last five minutes of TIME, new logins are prevented. The shutdown utility provides an automated shutdown procedure for supersers to nicely notify users when the system is shutting down, saving them from system administrators, hackers, and gurus, who would otherwise not bother with such niceties.

How do I use shutdown command?

The shutdown command can be used to turn off or reboot a computer. Type the command as follows to shutdown server / computer immediately:
$ sudo shutdown -h now
