      When looking up the TXT record, mongo-c-driver does not follow CNAME records. Is this intentional or overlooked? For example I have the following CNAME:

      CNAME mongo.opencpu.org -> cluster0-84vdt.mongodb.net
      

      However connecting to mongodb+srv://cluster0-84vdt.mongodb.net/test does not work. Manually looking up the TXT record with dig or host works fine:

      host -t txt mongo.opencpu.org
      mongo.opencpu.org is an alias for cluster0-84vdt.mongodb.net.
      cluster0-84vdt.mongodb.net descriptive text "authSource=admin&replicaSet=Cluster0-shard-0"
