To use P2Pool, you must be running your own local bitcoind. For standard configurations, using P2Pool should be as simple as:
python run_p2pool.py
Then run your miner program, connecting to 127.0.0.1 on port 9332 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

In order to run P2Pool with the Feathercoin network, you would need to build and install the ltc_scrypt module that includes the scrypt proof of work code that Feathercoin 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

Run P2Pool with the "--net feathercoin" option. Run your miner program, connecting to 127.0.0.1 on port 19327. Forward port 19339 to the host running P2Pool.
Run P2Pool with the "--net chncoin" option. Run your miner program, connecting to 127.0.0.1 on port 8109. Forward port 8107 to the host running P2Pool.
