0 Active Connection on my-new-coin I have compiled my-newcoin-qt and my-newcoind on different platforms (windows, Linux and Mac), with my coin specification based on litecoin.

When I run my-newcoin-qt at the first time, I get no error but the message:

0 Active Connections 


What should I do as the next step? Should I compile seeder software on VPS server?
I bought a droplet on DigitalOcean running Ubuntu 12.04. It is only $5/month. I opened the port, compiled my *coind program on it, created my .conf file and ran it. Now my client coin programs connect to it.
