A few months ago I posted a complete C program that does all this.
Try a search in the ActiveState perl mailing list with author

I'm sure there are modules that can do this, but I found the simplest 
way (for my purposes) was just to use the RASDIAL command.  So I have a 
command that looks like:

        system("rasdial", $conn, $uname, $pw);

which opens the connection, and then I use:

        system("rasdial", $conn, '/DISCONNECT');

to close the connection.

HTH,
Ricky
