I don't think you'll be able to use trusted connections at all with CF MX.
You'll need to set up SQL Server to allow "mixed mode" connections using
either Windows authentication (which won't work with CF MX) or SQL Server
usernames and passwords (which will work).

To do this, open the SQL Server Enterprise Manager, right-click on the
server entry, select "Properties", go to the "Security" tab, and make sure
"SQL Server and Windows" is selected for authentication instead of "Windows
only".
