      MongoDB shell version: 2.3.2-pre-
connecting to: test

                                        ^

      The shell session will still continue, but the error can be confusing. This is what showed up in the server logs:

      Mon Jan  7 12:06:38.010 [conn1] command denied: { getLog: "startupWarnings" }
Mon Jan  7 12:06:38.011 [conn1] command denied: { replSetGetStatus: 1.0, forShell: 1.0 }
