Requirements:
Generic:
- Bitcoin >=0.6.4
+ Novacoin >= 0.3.1
+ ltc_scrypt
Python
Twisted
python-argparse (for Python <=2.6)
Install Zope.Interface: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/zope.interface/3.8.0
Unzip the files into C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages
-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 "python run_p2pool.py --help" for additional options.

-Notes for Litecoin:
- Requirements:
- In order to run P2Pool with the Litecoin network, you would need to build and install the
- ltc_scrypt module that includes the scrypt proof of work code that Litecoin uses for hashes.
+Additional info about scrypt module:
+ In order to run P2Pool with the NovaCoin network, you would need to build and install the
+ ltc_scrypt module that includes the scrypt proof of work code that NovaCoin uses for block hashes.
Linux:
cd litecoin_scrypt

-
- Running P2Pool:
- Run P2Pool with the "--net litecoin" option.
- Run your miner program, connecting to 127.0.0.1 on port 9327.
- Forward port 9338 to the host running P2Pool.
-
- Litecoin's use of ports 9332 and 9332 conflicts with P2Pool running on
- the Bitcoin network. To avoid problems, add these lines to litecoin.conf
- and restart litecoind:
- rpcport=10332
- port=10333
