One cannot authenticate into the MongoDB shell ( at least in version 3.6.0 ) w/o specifying the authentication database. Following the format of the other flags mentioned here, one can use the --authenticationDatabase flag.

My apologies if I am not following procedure (or am simply wrong), but the current version seemed to me particularly misleading, and the change incredibly simple.
