It's been a while since I tried it, I don't remember which platform and
OS  I used (a pentium with some sort of Linux) but I know that I didn't have
any
problems using it.

I think that ECPP comes with a Maple certificate verifier, which might
be what you are looking for.  I think you can also convert certificates
to Mathematica format.  So once you have these certificates of primality
it's easy to verify them.  But I haven't tried any of those features...
