RAS NW Auto Dialup

I need to start a dialup RAS Connection programmatically by a LV
program. It seems there's no LV tool with this capability.
Any ideas would be of great help.

Thanks

If you simply want to establish a TCP/IP dial-up connection the
standard Win98 type dialer should automatically load when you do a
TCP/IP open - it seems to wait ok until the connection is established
- can be a bit difficult to programmatically close.

Another option is that a number of the DUN alternatives allow for
command line operation (e.g. Advanced Dialer) - this can be useful for
closing the session. I have found that it is best not to invoke the
dialer programmatically but rather let the TCP/IP open cause an auto
connect - this seems to cause less problems with timeouts.
