We have a modem terminal application written in VB6. It works great for what we need it to do, but there is a new requirement to initiate a VPN connection when dialing a particular provider. I’ve looked over some related posts and it looks like this may be possible using the RAS API. Can anyone suggest resources/advice for working with this API beyond MSDN?
Difficulty – .NET is not an option.
This may not be as robust as you need, but I have called out to the system rasdial command in the past for simple situations where I needed to setup a VPN connection.
Not industrial strength, but good to use in scripts and such.
