RAS (Remote Access Service) is a Microsoft service that allows remote devices to connect to a server. This can be via the internet (Wide Area Network), Modem, or direct connect. Some non Windows Mobile PDAs use RAS to sync up with the server.
Unless there's a specific need for this service, it's not advisable to run it, as it becomes a vulnerability.
