Choose a modulus W that is a product of small primes. Every prime not dividing W must be coprime to W, so a search can restrict candidates to the corresponding residue classes modulo W. For several linear polynomials, discard each residue class in which any required value is divisible by a selected prime. The surviving residue classes can be combined using the Chinese remainder theorem.
