Bug #1570

Reboot doesn't work from ssh with option 5
0%
Description
When I log into pfsense with ssh and choose option 5 to reboot and then confirm with "y", the system doesn't reboot.
When I try it from the web interface it does reboot. I didn't try option 8 to get a shell and subsequently type in reboot.

Can you not read ? This is not the same , it is the opposite. Please reopen this bug.

you're the one who can't read, the other ticket covers both this and the web interface reboot.

No, it doesn't , it is only mentioned in a comment that was added by you yesterday!
The original description clearly is about the opposite fenomina.
So unless you already know that the code that causes this error is the same for the web interface as well as for the 5.0 option, these should be separate bugs.
At least the title and description of #1564 should be changed, if this is the case.
Now to say that reboot works from SSH is confusing, as using the 5.) option after starting a SSH session would be considered trying to reboot from SSH by most people.

Typo: 5.0 should be 5.)
And I can reboot from the web interface, so my bug is definitely different.
