You can enumerate your active RAS connections.  I have a tip on this on my
Questions page at: http://members.truepath.com/delphi  Also there is a link
to another site, I don't remember the name, that is full of RAS tips.  I
think this site has a file called rasdial.zip with help on RAS as well.

I'm not sure if enumerating RAS connections will work with a modem pool...
since Windows still interprets this as a pipe connected to a LAN.
I'd be interested in knowing if it works or not... so please post once
you're done experimenting.
