Re: Connect to VPN from command line?

How can we launch a VPN connection via the command line without
embedding the username and password in the command line, i.e., using
the saved credentials just as if you'd launched the connection through
Network Connections?

With Rasdial when specifying the all-users phonebook I get this error:

Remote Access error 691 - Access was denied because the username
and/or password was invalid on the domain.

and if I point it to my personal phonebook I get this error:

Remote Access error 623 - The system could not find the phone book
entry for this connection.


You must first create the connection from the interactive
facility within Control Panel / Network Connections.
After you do, have a look in the phone book. It's a text
file and you can open it with any text editor. Be a little
inquisitive!
