httprequest dial up

Jim Love

I am trying to get some of the functionality that I used to have with the
Inet control in VB6. I am using the HttpRequest object in VB.NET. I want the
operating system to dial up using the connections specified in IE. This is
how it worked with the Inet control. If this is not possible, what is the
workaround?

AS a work around, you can call the Wininet API functions in your .NET
application. For example, InternetAutodial. For a reference, you can refer
this web page:

Luke,
That link doesn't work. Could you check it and resend?

Is there any way to do this by setting up Dial Up Networking?

I'm trying to keep this an all .net soultion if at all possible. If the user
just has to set something up (like dial up networking), it's still OK

or you can search with "Establishing a Dial-Up Connection to the Internet"
at msdn.microsoft.com.

Luke,
I have looked at the link. Using WinInet won't work because this will
eventually be made into a service. I cannot have any thing popup for user
interaction. The documentation recommends the WinHTTP API. Does this API
also have some way to control Dial Up? I know that IE will automatically use
the dial up and so will the Inet control (even in VB.NET). I don't
understand why the HTTPRequest, Socket, WebClient etc.. will not default to
that connection.

WinHTTP API also can't control the dial up. Some of these components are
desgined for enterprise application which should be work on intranet or
they work on a high layer, for example TCP/IP, and doesn't need to care
lower layer.
