      switched to db admin

      >  db.auth({user:"admin", pwd:"pass", mechanism:"SCRAM-SHA-1"})

      Error: 1 The server is not compiled with SSL support

      restarting mongod without --auth and then fire up mongo shell again:

      > db.system.users.findOne()
      {
      	"_id" : "admin.admin",
      	"user" : "admin",
      	"db" : "admin",
      	"credentials" : {
      		"MONGODB-CR" : "e4e538f5dcb52537cad02bbf8491693c"
      	},
      	"roles" : [
      		{
      			"role" : "root",
      			"db" : "admin"
      		}
      	]

      When mongod is compiled without OpenSSL support it does not support SCRAM-SHA-1.

      Yet, it will happily accept it as authenticationMechanisms=SCRAM-SHA-1 where as it should fail to startup.
