Mongo shell can't connect to server

This must be a simple problem, but I've very carefully followed the excellent and simple documentation provided at https://docs.c9.io/setting_up_mongodb.html and read EVERY cloud9-ide tagged question that includes 'MongoDb' - to no avail. I'd appreciate any help possible.

Following the directions referenced above, I appear to be able to get mongo running fine. (See below.)

However, when I try the shell - as instructed - I get the following error:

cliffchaney@sacs:~/workspace $ mongo --host $IP
MongoDB shell version: 2.6.4
connecting to: 0.0.0.0:27017/test
2014-09-10T17:53:55.570+0000 Error: couldn't connect to server 0.0.0.0:27017 (0.0.0.0), address resolved to 0.0.0.0 at src/mongo/shell/mongo.js:148
exception: connect failed

Any suggestions?

As noted, it appears that I can get mongod running. After following the previously mentioned instructions, I can execute the following (though I do get a warning):

cliffchaney@sacs:~/workspace $ ./mongod

You can access the shell prompt by simply running

$ mongo

Without the --host argument.
