Determine RAS device Com port

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.csharp,microsoft.public.windowsnt.protocol.ras (More info?)

Before dialing one can use RasSetEntryProperties to set the DeviceName &
Type. RasEntry->szDeviceName

Mapping between the device name and port name Should be known before.

After dialing u can verify which entry is using what port by using
RasGetEntryProperties and verifying the RasEntry -> szDeviceName. Here also
mapping between device name and port should be known before (Anyway this is
static once you configure the devices properly)
