+; Only one of the following two options, 'addpeer' and 'connect', may be
+; specified.  Both allow you to specify peers that you want to stay connected
+; with, but the behavior is slightly different.  By default, btcd will query DNS
+; to find peers to connect to, so unless you have a specific reason such as
+; those described below, you probably won't need to modify anything here.
+;
+; 'addpeer' does not prevent connections to other peers discovered from
+; the peers you are connected to and also lets the remote peers know you are
+; available so they can notify other peers they can to connect to you.  This
+; option might be useful if you are having problems finding a node for some
+; reason (perhaps due to a firewall).
+;
+; 'connect', on the other hand, will ONLY connect to the specified peers and
+; no others.  It also disables listening and DNS seeding, so you will not be
+; advertised as an available peer to the peers you connect to and won't accept
+; connections from any other peers.  So, the 'connect' option effectively allows
+; you to only connect to "trusted" peers.
