P2pool ports

What are the current p2pool ports for feathercoin?
p2pool-rav (https://github.com/Rav3nPL/p2pool-rav) shows
P2P_PORT=9339
andreasfaerber’s fork (https://github.com/a…oin/networks.py ) shows
P2P_PORT=9336
https://github.com/n…aster/README.md shows:
P2P_PORT=19339
Are any of those right? Is there a definitive networks.py for feathercoin out there?
I was using the rav fork, but getting no peers in or out.
I have a number of public p2pool nodes active - bitcoin, litecoin etc.
Feathercoin is the only one giving me an issue. I have feathercoind running, plus p2pool for feather coin running. Using the p2pool-rav branch works fine except I was getting no peers on the 9339 port. Ditto on 19339 from the other fork.
Using the Andreas Faerber branch, with p2p_port as 9336, it conflicts feathercoind’s default port is 9336, e.g.:
P2P_PORT=9336,
ADDRESS_VERSION=14,
RPC_PORT=9337
So, any suggestions on the proper p2pool ports?
Thanks!

I am using the Andreas Faerber branch with no problems. Ensure that your feathercoind rpcport is the same as your bitcoind-rpc-port and you should be good.

Thanks for the reply. I am not sure what the deal is. When I go to start p2pool for feathercoin, it tries to bind to port 9336 (as above) for the p2pool port, but feathercoind is already on that port and connected to the feather coin network so p2pool won’t start.
I know the default port for the feathercoin network is 9336 (https://www.feathercoin.com/about/) so I am not sure why the Andreas fork of p2pool is trying to use that some port.
I am sure that the feathercoin p2pool must be using a different port for the network.

p2pool connects to your feathercoind using 9336 and is listening on 19327 for miners to connect.
Normally everything works fine, as soon as feathercoind has synced with the blockchain. Until that time a couple of error messages show up in the console logs.
by the way, why do you want your own p2pool?
You can use one of the existing pools…

I wanted to add Feathercoin to http://www.p2pool.com so that others could mine it along with bitcoin, litecoin, etc. Specifically feathercoin because of their Prostate Cancer UK support. I don’t put many of the alt-coins on p2pool.com, but wanted to include FTC.
Anyway, I think I got it fixed - I re-cloned it and removed the p2pool-rav fork for feathercoin and now it is listening on 19327 and working.
I am not sure what the problem was except a port conflict.
