MongoDB read-only user not authenticating

MongoDB read-only user not authenticating



I'm currently attempting to create a read-only user in MongoDB for a grader. The MongoDB instance is hosted remotely on AWS EC2, and the security groups are all set up properly.



I can SSH onto the remote machine and authenticate with the read-only account there, like so:


# On remote machine
mongo -u <read-only username> -p <read-only-pwd> <database>



However, as soon as I try to connect to that same instance from my local machine using mongo, I encounter authentication errors.


mongo


# On local machine
mongo -u <read-only username> -p <read-only pwd> <host>/<database>



What gives?



The read-only user exists on <database>, and has "read" permissions.


<database>


"read"






When you say encounter authentication errors what do you mean? Please provide error message.

Check that you're not trying to authenticate with the wrong machine.



I'm an idiot.
