Miner detector does not detect minergate.com
i've been running miner_detector in order to detect connection to the minergate pool at xmr.pool.minergate.com:45560. However, even when I lowered the threshold to 7 (default was 9, the readme seems to be outdated), it did not detect the communication. Moreover, I was running tcpdump the whole time looking for communication to the port 45560 and it seems that the active stratum check was never performed.
I think that this module needs to be updated so that it detects current crypto miners, otherwise it is of no use to anybody.
Oh, and the miner that was used for this test was https://github.com/lucasjones/cpuminer-multi
I've tried another miner software wit the same effect: https://minergate.com/downloads/gui
On the other hand, there are so many false positive checks, that my collector gets blocked by firewalls.
