At least 2 things:

>  DWORD errco=RasGetEntryDialParams("", &params, &bPassword);

pszPhonebook
Windows NT: Pointer to a null-terminated string that specifies the
full path and filename of a phone-book (.PBK) file. If this parameter
is NULL, the function uses the current default phone-book file.

1) Bad phonebook name.   "" Is not NULL.  NULL is NULL.
   errco=RasGetEntryDialParams(NULL, &params, &bPassword);

lprasdialparams
Points to a RASDIALPARAMS structure that receives the connection
parameters,{...} and the szEntryName member must specify a valid
phone-book entry.
>  params.szEntryName[0] = '\0'; //<--- as you said I initialized

2) Not as he meant. See the quote above.
It must ba a "Valid phone-book entry".
'\0' probably isn't a valid name.

Read about what RasEnumEntries() does.
It returns valid phone book entries.
Choose one of those entries.
Copy that entry into params.
