Is anyone currently using T-rex to mine Conflux via the Octopus protocol?
If so, would you please share the commands you use?
I can't seem to get it to work properly on any of the systems I've tried so far when running either T-Rex v0.20.0 or v0.19.14 (Windows) clients.
I've tried to connect to the WoolyPooly and F2Pool pools and T-Rex behaves the same for both, where I get the same error during startup:

So far I have:
- Verified that I am not being blocked by my firewall. I know this because I can see an established connection to the pool's IP and port when I check using netstat -a. I also added the T-Rex executable to my host OS' firewall exceptions list.
- Made sure that I run T-Rex.exe in an administrative command prompt.
FWIW, I submitted a ticket to F2Pools and they wrote back advising me to shorten and simplify the worker name in my command line, which I've done however it makes no difference.
I'm stumped.
