Hello !

I develop an application which with need periodically and automatically to connect itself to Internet (to the Internet service provider).

If connection Internet is done by the LAN, there is no problem.
But if it is done by a modem 56k for example, I would like to launch remote connection automatically, to make my job, then to stop connection when I do not need any more. 

Which functions do I have to use to do this, or in which direction must I seek?  Or is this that somebody would have an end of code to show me?

Thanks for help.
Matthieu
