Hey madness,
the used r is definitely in the range (0, 2^32). But there are significantly faster methods than brute-force. ;)
If you still struggle with this challenge, you can write me a PM with your approach and I'll take a look.

Hey vinay27,

The value of gamma can be smaller than beta since gamma is an element in Z_p as well — and therefore gamma = m * beta^r mod p.
