Problem Statement

Find all positive integers nn such that there are \infty many lines of Pascal's triangle that have entries coprime to nn only. In other words: such that there are \infty many kk with the property that the numbers (k0),(k1),(k2),...,(kk)\binom{k}{0},\binom{k}{1},\binom{k}{2},...,\binom{k}{k} are all coprime to nn.
