How to avoid Network Location selection popup for Dial-up connection in Vista
I have a 32-bit C++ application built with Visual Studio 2005 in XP.
The application creates a dial-up connection entry into rasphone.pbk successfully in 32-bit and 64-bit Vista. And the dial-up connection works as expected. However, at the first run of the dial-up connection, after the connection has been made, Vista pop-ups a Network Location selection window asking to choose: 1. Home 2. Business 3. Public Location (the default) After the selection, the corresponding setting would show up in Network Connections as Network Category: private network (Home or Business) or public network (Public Location). It seems like my goal is to programmatically set the 'Network Category' to prevent the network location selection popup during first run. I am trying to manipulate the RASENTRY passed into the method RasSetEntryProperties() and using INI setting to change some entries, but no sure which parameters to change. Any help is appreciated. Below is the initial rasphone.pbk before the first run.

How to avoid Network Location selection popup for Dial-up connection in Vista
I verified from registry key. After initial installation by my
application, the registry entry doesn't have profile for my dial-up connection yet. The registry entry is created during first run. In order to set the network category using the script above, I need to have the registry entry for the dial connection during initial installation. What to follow?

How to avoid Network Location selection popup for Dial-up connection in Vista
Why not run the dial-up connection and then cancel it? This should
set the profile for it... --- Jeffrey Randow Windows Networking MVP 2001-2006 http://www.networkblog.net On Sat, 10 Nov 2007 07:35:10 -0800, " wrote: I verified from registry key.
