Requirements:
-------------------------
Generic:
* Bitcoin >=0.11.1
* Python >=2.6
* Twisted >=10.0.0
Linux:
* sudo apt-get install python-rrdtool python-pygame python-scipy python-twisted python-twisted-web python-imaging
Windows:
* Install Python 2.7: http://www.python.org/getit/
* Install Twisted: http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/wiki/Downloads
* Install Zope.Interface: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/zope.interface/3.8.0
* Install python win32 api: http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/files/pywin32/Build%20218/
* Install python win32 api wmi wrapper: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/WMI/#downloads
* 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:
cd lyra2re-hash-python
git submodule init
git submodule update
sudo python setup.py install
cd ../
python run_p2pool.py --net vertcoin
Then run your miner program, connecting to 127.0.0.1 on port 9171 with any
username and password.
If you are behind a NAT, you should enable TCP port forwarding on your
router. Forward port 9346 to the host running P2Pool.
Run for additional options.
python run_p2pool.py --help

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.
Linux:
cd litecoin_scrypt
sudo python setup.py install
Windows (mingw):
* Install MinGW: http://www.mingw.org/wiki/Getting_Started
* Install Python 2.7: http://www.python.org/getit/
In bash type this:
cd litecoin_scrypt
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 litecoin_scrypt
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 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 9333 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
