Notes:

I don't known why SizeConst = RAS_MaxEntryName, not SizeConst = RAS_MaxEntryName + 1 as in ras.h, but this work.

(also szDeviceType and szDeviceName shall be + 1).

Check my English, please

Sample Code:

This is main concept only:

// create 1 item array.
RAW.RASCONN[] connections = new RAW.RASCONN[1];
connections[0].dwSize = Marshal.SizeOf(typeof(RAW.RASCONN));
//Get entries count
int connectionsCount = 0;
int cb = Marshal.SizeOf(typeof(RAW.RASCONN));
int nRet = RAW.RasEnumConnections(connections, ref cb, out connectionsCount);
if (nRet != RAW.ERROR_SUCCESS && nRet != RAW.ERROR_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL)
    throw new Win32Exception(nRet);
if (connectionsCount == 0)
    return;
// create array with specified entries number
connections = new RAW.RASCONN[connectionsCount];
for (int i = 0; i < connections.Length; i++)
{
    connections[i].dwSize = Marshal.SizeOf(typeof(RAW.RASCONN));
}
nRet = RAW.RasEnumConnections(connections, ref cb, out connectionsCount);
if (nRet != RAW.ERROR_SUCCESS)
    throw new Win32Exception((int)nRet);

An alternative sample (Windows Vista or later) based on http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa377284(VS.85).aspx

int cb = 0, connectionCount;
if (RAW.RasEnumConnections(null, ref cb, out connectionCount) == RAW.ERROR_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL)
{
    if (connectionCount == 0) return;
    RAW.RASCONN[] buffer = new RAW.RASCONN[conns];
    buffer[0].dwSize = Marshal.SizeOf(typeof(RAW.RASCONN));
    if (RasApi.RasEnumConnections(buffer, ref cb, out conns) == RAW.ERROR_SUCCESS)
    {
        // look through the buffer...
    }
}
