[HOWTO] Setup a p2pool for Bytecoin

[blastbob]

Been playing with p2pool and even got some help from the p2pool author.

Quick fix for new users:

git clone git://github.com/chrda/p2pool.git

Quick fix for gerco modified p2pool users:
1. Edit p2pool/p2pool/networks.py
2. Locate      bytecoin=math.Object( area
3. Edit BOOTSTRAP_ADDRS=''.split(' '), And change it to

BOOTSTRAP_ADDRS='seed.bytecoin.cc seed01.bytecoin.cc seed02.bytecoin.cc'.split(' '),

This simple mod will make sure nodes starts talking together. Enjoy

Follow this guide for the rest of the p2pool setup:

Code is taken from these repos:
https://github.com/forrestv/p2pool -  original p2pool
https://github.com/gerco/p2pool - bytecoin network mod

Someone should submit a proper patch for p2pool's official client to support bytecoin rather than everyone having their own hacked version.

Or make Bytecoin merged mineable.  That would be killer.

How difficult is it to mod the source to support new coins like CHNcoin?
