can't modify ppcoind's wallet location

Hello, and thanks in advance to anyone that can help.

I run a growing number of altcoin daemons on a server. To help stay organized, I modified each daemon's wallet.dat file to indicate which altcoin it stores keys for. E.G. in the dash directory, I moved the wallet to wallet-dash.dat. I then added the line "wallet=wallet-dash.dat" into the dash.conf. This worked like a charm for all of the altcoins except Peercoin.

Does anyone have some insight into how to get this to work for peercoin as well? I've confirmed that ppcoin.conf is getting read (it needs to for the RPC user/password, or the daemon doesn't run). I've tried including the full file path (I.E. wallet=/home/oldspurty/.ppcoind/wallet-peercoin.dat). I've also tried removing the line from the configuration file, and adding it to the command (I.E. ppcoind -wallet=wallet-peercoin.dat). No matter what I do, it seems to always go with the default wallet.dat file. It would be very beneficial to me if I could make this work with the modified name.

Thanks again,

OldSpurty
