/*
 *   Lim-Lee prime generation
 *
 *   See "A Key recovery Attack on Discrete Log-based Schemes using a Prime 
 *   Order Subgroup", Lim & Lee, Crypto '97
 *
 *   For certain Discrete Log based protocols these primes are preferable 
 *   to those generated for example by the utilty dssetup.c
 *   This program can be used in place of dssetup.cpp
 *
 *   When run the program generates a prime p PBITS in length, where 
 *   p-1=2*pa*pb*pc....*q, where q is a prime QBITS in length, and pa,pb,pc 
 *   etc are all primes > QBITS in length. Also generated is g, a generator 
 *   of the prime-order sub-group, of order q.
 *
 *   Finally p, q and g are output to the file common.dss
 *
 *   It may be quicker, and is quite valid, to make OBITS > QBITS.
 *   This allows the pool size to be decreased.
 *
 *   Requires: big.cpp
 *
