23 To use P2Pool, you must be running your own local bitcoind. For standard
24 configurations, using P2Pool should be as simple as:
28 Then run your miner program, connecting to 127.0.0.1 on port 9332 with any
29 username and password.
31 If you are behind a NAT, you should enable TCP port forwarding on your
32 router. Forward port 9333 to the host running P2Pool.
34 Run for additional options.

54 In order to run P2Pool with the Litecoin network, you would need to build and install the
55 ltc_scrypt module that includes the scrypt proof of work code that Litecoin uses for hashes.
60 sudo python setup.py install
63 * Install MinGW: http://www.mingw.org/wiki/Getting_Started
64 * Install Python 2.7: http://www.python.org/getit/
69 C:\Python27\python.exe setup.py build --compile=mingw32 install
71 Windows (microsoft visual c++)
72 * Open visual studio console
76 SET VS90COMNTOOLS=%VS110COMNTOOLS% # For visual c++ 2012
77 SET VS90COMNTOOLS=%VS100COMNTOOLS% # For visual c++ 2010
79 C:\Python27\python.exe setup.py build --compile=mingw32 install

86 Run P2Pool with the "--net litecoin" option.
87 Run your miner program, connecting to 127.0.0.1 on port 9327.
88 Forward port 9338 to the host running P2Pool.
90 Litecoin's use of ports 9332 and 9332 conflicts with P2Pool running on
91 the Bitcoin network. To avoid problems, add these lines to litecoin.conf
92 and restart litecoind:
