Create System DSN On The Fly

Question

I am trying to minimize the configuration on a client machine. What I want to do, is try to connect to a dabase via a DSN name, and if the DSN name does not exist, it will be created and connected to. How can I create a system DSN on a computer running Windows via .net code.
