 Description   

Mongos configdb "parameters" are case sensistive. Is this correct? The docs only state that "option" names are case sensitive.

This fails:
OPTIONS="--configdb NODE1:27017,NODE2:27017,NODE3:27017"

This works
OPTIONS="--configdb node1:27017,node2:27017,node3:27017"

4999 is to make all host names case insensitive.
i made the summary there clearer

This should not be closed. It is different, this is about how mongos treats node names of config servers and not about sharding/replicaset definition. Resolving 4999 will not resolve this. Parameters in configuration file or command line should not be case sensitive.
