Make a VPN PPTP connection

Hello!

I tried before to get an answer on this subject but didn't get ant replies.
I don't know if it means I explained badly or if its not possible! I'll try
to explain more detailed.

If you start RasPhone.exe you can create an entry for connecting VPN / PPTP.
What you need is a servername, username and password. When the entry is
created you can "Dial" the connection and then "Hang up" the connection.
What I would like to do is to make the same PPTP connection from within
Delphi without having to create an entry in RasPhones Phonebook, jist
knowing the PPTP servername, username and password!

The reason is we have houndreds of routers (with PPTP) and all of the
connection information is stored in a database. We have clients all over the
place reading the database and I dont want to create all these houndreds og
Phonebook entries on all these client machines,

And, no, I do not want to maintain a phonebookfile and distribute it to all
clients! Informations about new routeras is often added in the database and
I want the clients to be able to connect to them immediately.

Is this possible?

Regards, Mikael
