Why each option

On OES NetWare, restarting the operating system requires a two-step process or a combined command - either RESET SERVER or RESTART SERVER will shut down and reload NetWare without requiring a full hardware reboot.

ADOWN

DOWN halts the NetWare OS and returns to the DOS prompt but does not automatically restart it - a separate command is needed to reload.

BEXIT

EXIT is used after DOWN to exit the server process back to DOS, but alone it does not shut down or restart NetWare.

CINIT 6

INIT 6 is a Linux/Unix SysV init command for rebooting and is not recognized by the NetWare server console.

DRESET SERVERCorrect

RESET SERVER shuts down the NetWare OS, unloads all NLMs, and reloads the server software, making AUTOEXEC.NCF changes effective without a full hardware power cycle.

EREBOOT SERVER

REBOOT SERVER is not a valid NetWare console command - the correct commands are RESET SERVER or RESTART SERVER.

FRESTART SERVERCorrect

RESTART SERVER performs the same function as RESET SERVER - it brings down the NetWare operating system and immediately reloads it, applying any configuration file changes made to AUTOEXEC.NCF.
