Using LLR2 with PRPNet

Description

Using Pavel Atnashev's LLR2 fork in place of Jean Penné's LLR to perform Fermat probable prime tests with Gerbicz error checking with the PRPNet client.

Needed software

• ASCII editor
• LLR2
• PRPNet client

Example

Preparation WIN

• Copy prpclient.exe, prpclient.ini, and llr2.exe into a folder.
• Create a file named llr2.bat with this code:

@ECHO OFF
llr2.exe -oGerbicz=1 %*

• Use llr2.bat as the value for llrexe in prpclient.ini.
• Run prpclient.exe as normal.

Results:

• PRPNet will use LLR2 to perform Fermat probable prime tests with Gerbicz error checking.

Preparation LINUX

• Copy prpclient, prpclient.ini, and llr2 into a folder.
• Create a file named llr2.sh with this code:

#!/bin/sh
./llr2 -oGerbicz=1 $@

• Set the executable bit on llr2.sh (for example, by running chmod a+x llr2.sh).
• Use ./llr2.sh as the value for llrexe in prpclient.ini.
• Run ./prpclient as normal.

Results:

• PRPNet will use LLR2 to perform Fermat probable prime tests with Gerbicz error checking.
