I have mongodb installed on my pi successfully for a few months. Since yesterday, I've not been able to connect to it from the local machine, but bizarrely I can connect to it from another machine on the same network.
If I connect locally, I get this
MongoDB shell version: 2.1.1-pre-
Sat Sep 3 17:20:39 versionCmpTest passed
Sat Sep 3 17:20:39 versionArrayTest passed

Whereas remotely, it works fine

I've been tearing my hair out for the last few hours trying to get it to work.
FWIW the only other change I've made to the box is I've installed a wifi dongle a few days ago, but mongo was working fine with it until yesterday
