    Description

      Connecting with ConnectionString works great when not authenticating.

      Authentication needs implicit authMechanism authSource declarations.

      I propose using the specified DB (if specified and authSource isn't) as the connection string already allows for this:
      mongodb://user:pass@host:port/DB

      Furthermore authMechanism has no default value and must be explicitly defined in the connection string.
