Re: ASCII NUL in NAS-Filter-Rule
Phil, this construction does not send string2. I assume when freeradius see nul character it stops reading the string. Also I cannot send different rules for each customers in such manner. I found one decision for my problem. If I send additional NAS-Filter-Rule attribute equal to 0x00 after each of my own, character nul is successfully sending.

Re: ASCII NUL in NAS-Filter-Rule
Just a guess, but is sounds like a string array to me. char **string_array ; Look up malloc and related functions to designate space for additions to the array. This is NOT how you do it but this is the general idea : $string_array[0] = filter entry 1 ; $string_array[1] = filter entry 2 ; An automated way of creating a string array is to use a delimited the use index or rindex to find the delimiter then replace the delimiter with '\0'. If you have experienced programing in C, you should know how to find all the functions required to carry this out.
