Requirements:

Generic:

  • Bitcoin >=0.8.5
  • Python >=2.6
  • Twisted >=10.0.0
  • python-argparse (for Python =2.6)

Linux:

  • sudo apt-get install python-zope.interface python-twisted python-twisted-web
  • sudo apt-get install python-argparse # if on Python 2.6

Windows:

Running P2Pool:

To use P2Pool, you must be running your own local bitcoind. For standard configurations, using P2Pool should be as simple as:

python run_p2pool.py

Then run your miner program, connecting to 127.0.0.1 on port 9332 with any username and password.

If you are behind a NAT, you should enable TCP port forwarding on your router. Forward port 9333 to the host running P2Pool.

Run for additional options.

python run_p2pool.py --help

Notes for Neoscrypt:

Requirements:

In order to run P2Pool with the any neoscrypt based network, you would need to build and install the neoscrypt module that includes the scrypt proof of work code that Litecoin uses for hashes.

Linux:

cd neoscrypt
sudo python setup.py install

Windows (mingw):

In bash type this:

cd neoscrypt
C:\Python27\python.exe setup.py build --compile=mingw32 install

Windows (microsoft visual c++)

  • Open visual studio console

In bash type this:

SET VS90COMNTOOLS=%VS110COMNTOOLS%	           # For visual c++ 2012
SET VS90COMNTOOLS=%VS100COMNTOOLS%             # For visual c++ 2010
cd neoscrypt
C:\Python27\python.exe setup.py build --compile=mingw32 install

If you run into an error with unrecognized command line option '-mno-cygwin', see this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6034390/compiling-with-cython-and-mingw-produces-gcc-error-unrecognized-command-line-o

Running P2Pool:

Run P2Pool with the "--net feathercoin" option. Run your miner program, connecting to 127.0.0.1 on port 9336. Forward port 9338 to the host running P2Pool.

Notes for Feathercoin:

Requirements:

In order to run P2Pool with the Feathercoin network, you would need to build and install the neoscrypt module that includes the scrypt proof of work code that feaathercoin uses for hashes.

See "Notes for Neoscrypt" above on how to install the neoscript module.

Running P2Pool:

Run P2Pool with the "--net feathercoin" option. Run your miner program, connecting to 127.0.0.1 on port 19327. Forward port 19339 to the host running P2Pool.

Feathercoin's use of ports could conflicts with P2Pool running on one of the Cryptocoin networks. To avoid problems, add these lines to litecoin.conf and restart litecoind:

rpcport=11332
port=11333
