Redis: redis-cli not asking for password

Question

I have configured my redis.conf with requirepass and I started the server with

redis-server redis.conf

However, when I run redis-cli it does not ask me for password and lets me connect to redis, but when I try to run a command, asks me for the password.

This behavior is causing problems with Sentinel because Sentinel tries to authenticate. Sentinel won't find that master because is not asking for password.

Wasn't something releated to redis-cli i associated two separate things there is the solution.
