OK thanks. i've changed it. But my dimecoin wallet doesn't start to synchronise. I have the same problem with my orbitcoin wallet and frozen coin wallet. They all have a config file.
ALso 0 active connections for both.
I had a try with DimeCoin and i cant seem to get any connections on it either >.<
i added all the nodes i could find (the addnode= bit in the config file) but it doesnt appear to work for me :-(
so i think you have probably done everything right and its just a problem with the coin/wallet itself, keep an eye on their main thread, there may be something that comes to the forefront to help you out.
