coin::p2pool::TRC

1. setup your local terracoin client/daemon to enable its rpc server:

 create a new directory for terracoin data. (ex: $HOME/terracoin)

 create a new text file terracoin.conf under this directory ($HOME/terracoin/terracoin.conf) containing:
      server=1
      rpcuser=YOURUSER
      rpcpassword=YOURPASSWORD
      rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
      rpcport=13332

 create a new text file start-trc.sh under this directory (or ~/bin/) containing:
      #!/bin/sh
      $HOME/terracoin/terracoin-qt -noirc -gen=0 -port=13333 -datadir=/home/YOURUNIXUSERNAME/terracoin/
     
 chmod 750 $HOME/terracoin/start-trc.sh

2. build your terracoin client/daemon :

 mkdir ~/build && cd ~/build/
 git clone git://github.com/terracoin/terracoin.git
 cd terracoin/
 qmake USE_UPNP=1 USE_IPV6=-
 make -j 2
 strip terracoin-qt
 cp terracoin-qt ~/terracoin/

3. start your terracoin client/daemon:

 execute $HOME/terracoin/start-trc.sh

4. retrieve p2pool

 cd ~/build/
 git clone git://github.com/forrestv/p2pool.git
 sudo apt-get install python-argparse python-twisted

5. prepare p2pool:

 create a new file $HOME/build/p2pool/start-trc.sh containing: (replace 1Cj..MmrN with your terracoin address)
      #!/bin/sh
      python run_p2pool.py --net terracoin -a YOURTRCADDRESS -f 0 --bitcoind-p2p-port 13333 --bitcoind-rpc-port 13332 YOURUSER YOURPASSWORD
 
 chmod 750 $HOME/build/p2pool/start-trc.sh

6. start p2pool:

 When your terracoin client/daemon is fully synchronized, start p2pool by executing $HOME/build/p2pool/start-trc.sh
 After a few seconds, you can point your web browser to http://127.0.0.1:9322/

7. start your miner app

 point your miner application to http://127.0.0.1:9322
 If you use a random username, payouts will go to previously configured address.
 If you use a valid terracoin address as a miner username, your payouts will go there.
 Use a random password.

NOTE : for optimal performance, you're encouraged to forward/open inbound tcp ports 9323 and 13333

      (p2pool + trc) on your firewall/router
