How do addnodes work?

[rally]

Can somebody help me to explain how you have to addnodes.
I have a wallet that is blocked and want to restart it.
Someone published the addnodes i can use, but have to i work with that.
I have done that some time ago, but have forgotten how you have to do that.

In the bitcoin.conf file, add lines with

Code:

addnode=<node ip>

where <node ip> is the ip address of the node you want to connect to. That way, when you start up Bitcoin Core, it will always attempt to connect to those nodes.

It is for my wallet of CorgiCoin.
But when i look in my map roaming, i don't find a conf file there.

If it doesn't exist, make one.

It doesn't work. Maybe the addnodes are not working anymore.
I am going to try to contact the person who gave me the addnodes, but he is not online at this moment.
Thanks for helping me.
