user35577: According to this page,

The client will automatically read a file named "addr.txt" in the
  bitcoin data directory and will add any addresses it finds in there as
  node addresses.

However, I can't find any point in the source code where this file is actually read, and I don't know how to verify all the peers known by my node.
Is the "addr.txt" file actually read by bitcoind? 
How can I check if the addresses are actually loaded?

user5757: This feature is no longer present in Bitcoin Core.  It was removed in 2011.
You can get the same effect by adding multiple addnode= lines to your bitcoin.conf.
