19 To use P2Pool, you must be running your own local bitcoind. For standard
20 configurations, using P2Pool should be as simple as:
24 Then run your miner program, connecting to 127.0.0.1 on port 9332 with any
25 username and password.
27 If you are behind a NAT, you should enable TCP port forwarding on your
28 router. Forward port 9333 to the host running P2Pool.
30 Run "python run_p2pool.py --help" for additional options.
34 In order to run P2Pool with the Litecoin network, you would need to build and install the
35 ltc_scrypt module that includes the scrypt proof of work code that Litecoin uses for hashes.

52 Run P2Pool with the "--net litecoin" option.
53 Run your miner program, connecting to 127.0.0.1 on port 9327.
54 Forward port 9338 to the host running P2Pool.
56 Litecoin's use of ports 9332 and 9332 conflicts with P2Pool running on
57 the Bitcoin network. To avoid problems, add these lines to litecoin.conf
58 and restart litecoind:
