A fork of Rav3nPL's p2pool-rav to support Dogecoin (DOGE) p2pool after Dogecoin 1.8+ wallet fork. (DEPRECATED!)

http://www.dogecoin-p2pool.com

NOTICE: This fork should not be used for mining, it is a reference only. For actual p2pool mining, instead use litecoin p2pool with dogecoin merged mining. If you decide to use this fork you should expect significant variance on payouts, or none at all. Using this fork will not benefit the dogecoin p2pool network as well as proper merge mining of dogecoin on a litecoin p2pool node.

Detailed instructions for installing Litecoin P2Pool with Dogecoin merge mining on Windows or Linux are at these links:

Notes for Litecoin and Dogecoin Support:

Requirements:

In order to run P2Pool with the Litecoin or Dogecoin 1.8 network, you need to build and install the included ltc_scrypt module which provides the scrypt proof of work code that Litecoin uses for hashes.

Linux:

cd ~
git clone https://github.com/CohibAA/p2pool-doge1-8.git ~/p2pool-doge
cd ~/p2pool-doge/litecoin_scrypt
sudo python setup.py install
cd ..

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

Running P2Pool:

To use P2Pool, you must be running your own local dogecoind (or other wallet server). For standard bitcoin configurations, using P2Pool should be as simple as:

python ~/p2pool-doge/run_p2pool.py

A normal dogecoind 1.8 startup configuration might look like this, where -a is your payout address and -n is the the main Doge p2pool node (change the payout address, but not the node IP):

python ~/p2pool-doge/run_p2pool.py --net litecoin -a LcjmUck1PB2dZun9My9N2W8hwFpAfeEkfP -n 54.68.63.254

Then run your miner program, connecting to 127.0.0.1 on port 9555 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

Running P2Pool:

Run P2Pool with the "--net litecoin" or "--net dogecoin" 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. This should not affect Dogecoin ports:

rpcport=10332
port=10333

Notes for DigiByte:

Digibyte implements a custom subsidy function, that you need to build in order to successfully run your P2Pool node. See digibyte_subsidy/README.txt for installation details.
