I'm writing a server program that will collect up a directory structure and
email to me at 2am in the morning. But I only have access to a modem from
the Server. This needs to be a quick, dirty & simple program. Considering
that .NET doesn't support modems yet, I don't want to use OCX.

I'm thinking of a work around but need help figuring it out. I need to find
a modem dialer that I can call from the Windows Scheduler that will
automaticlly dial into my ISP when It opens. The only issue then would be
how to close the connection without killing the dialer's process. Better
yet a command-line program that would dial and disconnect would be great.
Then I can command-line a connect & disconnect when needed. any ideas?

Thanks.
 
Hi Jim

You mean like the Win2K & WinXP 'RASDIAL' command? Type 'RASDIAL /?' at a command prompt for its usage
