title: Mongodump getting blank folders
body: <p>I am trying to run this command from a <code>remote ssh</code></p>
  
  <pre><code>mongodump --host mongodb1.example.net --port 27017 --username user --password pass --out /opt/backup/mongodump-2013-10-24
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However, all I am getting is blank folders for each collections.</p>
  
  <p>What am I doing wrong?</p>
  
  <p>Info (if it matters):
  Source Mongodb is on Windows Server
  And SSH is of a remote Ubuntu Machine</p>
  
  <p>Here is the terminal output:</p>
  
  <pre><code>connected to: ip.ip.ip.ip:27017
  Thu Feb 18 00:46:01.757 all dbs
  Thu Feb 18 00:46:01.809 DATABASE: admin  to     /opt/backup/mongodump-2013-10-24/admin
  Thu Feb 18 00:46:01.903 DATABASE: anthony_data       to     /opt/backup/mongodump-2013-10-24/anthony_data
  Thu Feb 18 00:46:02.004 DATABASE: temp_data  to     /opt/backup/mongodump-2013-10-24/temp_data
  Thu Feb 18 00:46:02.104 DATABASE: zoomy   to     /opt/backup/mongodump-2013-10-24/zoomy
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So it creates empty folder for all collections. But there is no bson in it</p>
