The cryptographically-secure big-integer (string of digits for use
by bcmath) must be generated on the remote PHP/MySQL server
(independently on each of several such servers where my software
will be installed, same PK system on each server but different user
services and associated databases on each). They support *only* PHP
scripting, no Lisp or C or device interface etc., but more
importantly I don't have physical access there to install any new
hardware such as you suggest.
