MONGODB-CR is the original auth mechanism (stands for Challenge Response). It was the default through MongoDB 2.6, and superseded by SCRAM-SHA-1 in MongoDB 3.0. We check the server's version in _mongoc_cluster_auth_node to determine which mechanism is the default; leave the logic unchanged. Update authentication.rst. Probably the least confusing thing is just to delete mentions of MONGODB-CR there. Delete it from example-scram.c. Investigate whether we should stop testing MONGODB-CR in run-auth-tests.sh. |
