I'm not a debian bug handler but...
try "shutdown -t0 -r now" and re-submit if it doesn't work (I think
specifying time is required?)

Hello,
when I am logged in (by ssh or on tty1-tty6) as root on the machine where I am
writing this from and enter "shutdown -r now", the machine does not reboot,
but instead I get the message:
Give root password for maintenance (or press Control-D to continue):
Regards
