Connecting to a sentinel Redis 5.0.1 server fails with NOAUTH Authentication required

[ssouris-te]

Bug Report

Current Behavior

I am trying to connect to the sentinel node of a Redis setup in AWS, and I am getting the message:

NOAUTH Authentication required.

Input Code

Just used a template for Spring Boot from start.spring.io with redis my properties are

spring:
  redis:
    password: ***********
    sentinel:
      master: redis-master
      nodes:
        - redis-sentinel.host

Expected behavior/code

It should connect without a problem.

Environment

• Lettuce version(s): 5.1.4.RELEASE, 5.1.5.RELEASE
• Redis version: 5.0.1

Possible Solution

I think the problem is that from 5.0.1 and on they added authentication on the Sentinel and that's why it's failing. For more info check Redis 5 Release Notes
