Litecoin Core RPC client version v0.16.0
----
So latest version of Litecoin Core Full Node is running, but it is not listening.
The problem is: My node is invisible from outside on TCP port 9333:

Basically TCP port 9333 isn't open... why ? (140.82.58.152 = host Bitcoin-1)
(+same problem exists with my other host 193.29.187.116 = host thc-1)
Another question: Should I install Electrum-LTC server, or Electrum-LTC users just connect to plain Litecoin Full Node at random ?
Okay, problem SOLVED !
It turns out that 'nmap' doesn't scan a port of 9333 by default. So I forced a full port scan.
