Hmmm, well the terminal command: "shutdown -r now" will do that. All you need to do is call that from Objective-C. I don't remember how to call terminal commands off the top of my head, but worst comes to worst you can stick it in an applescript.

I wouldn't recommend running that from a GUI application, though, because "shutdown -r now" causes an (almost) immediate reboot and doesn't gracefully quit every running GUI application first. If you make a program run that, and at least one of your program's users had unsaved work in the background at the time, then you'll end up with at least one very angry user...
