Puppet users - Mar 2014 - mongodb database setup unauthorized auth=true and enableLocalhostAuthBypass=1

hi all

i am having trouble trying to puppetize my mongodb setup using the module 
https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-mongodb.

puppet fails when executing `/usr/bin/mongo --quiet --eval 
db.getMongo().getDBNames()`

the full error msg is 

`Error: /Stage[main]/Mongo::Deploy_mongo/Mongodb_database[mongotest]: Could 
not evaluate: Execution of '/usr/bin/mongo --quiet --eval 
db.getMongo().getDBNames()' returned 252: Tue Mar 25 14:37:23.250 
listDatabases failed:{ "ok" : 0, "errmsg" :
"unauthorized" } at
src/mongo/shell/mongo.js:46`

i have set `auth=true` and `setParameter = enableLocalhostAuthBypass=1` in 
my conf file

my understanding was that even though `auth` was enabled, commands issued 
from the localhost are allowed to bypass it. can someone help me understand 
why the command above doesn't work?

thanks
ben
