iirc those files are now deprecated, the tahoe.cfg config
file has to hold the port numbers instead, like this:

 The value is a comma-separated string of host:port location hints, like
 this:

  123.45.67.89:8098,tahoe.example.com:8098,127.0.0.1:8098

 A few examples:

  Emulate default behavior, assuming your host has IP address 123.45.67.89
  and the kernel-allocated port number was 8098:

   tub.port = 8098
   tub.location = 123.45.67.89:8098,127.0.0.1:8098

  Use a DNS name so you can change the IP address more easily:

   tub.port = 8098
   tub.location = tahoe.example.com:8098

  Run a node behind a firewall (which has an external IP address) that has
  been configured to forward port 7912 to our internal node's port 8098:

   tub.port = 8098
   tub.location = external-firewall.example.com:7912

same is for introducer.port
