Hi, > Seems to work here, as long as the attribute is of type "octets". Hm, what exactly do you mean? > Calling-Station-Id =\000 > > results in: > > Calling-Station-Id = "" This is the behaviour I described as fine (the \000 is kicked since it is the last character, and what remains is a completely empty attribute), and what your colleague would probably describe as bad: he thinks, the \000 should be sent in the packet. Actually, I don't think that Calling-Station-Id is on the wire at all, since empty attributes are supposed to be suppressed. And that's why the packet arrives on the server without this attribute: > Received on the server as: > > Packet-Type = Access-Request > Thu Jun 15 13:55:14 2006 > User-Name = "ppp1@example.com" > User-Password = "b" > NAS-Port-Type = xDSL > MS-CHAP-Challenge = 0x00 > NAS-IP-Address = 127.0.0.1 > Stripped-User-Name = "ppp1" > Realm = "example.com" Since you _want_ the \000 to be sent, I don't see why it "seems to work here"? Maybe the only thing that would really give clarity about what is really happening is a pcap capture with ethereal or similar.
