Storing your account information in the news reader's configuration is a potential security risk. If you are unsure, please refer to our FAQ at http://news.cis.dfn.de/faq.html#1.6. It is not necessary to enter a password if your institution is a member of the institutional access scheme (Anwenderzulassung) and you are accessing the server from your institution's network.

Click Fetch List to download the list of groups available on our server.
Knode retrieves the list now. This may take some time. Initially the list of groups is shown in a collapsed view. You can open and close each (sub)hierarchy by clicking the plus or minus sign, or by double-clicking the name. Subscribe a group by checking the box left of the name. Click OK when finished.
After subscribing a moderated group KNode might give an alert as shown below. Uncheck "Do not show this message again" if you don't want to see it again, then click OK.
Your subscribed groups will appear in the left part of the main window below the account. Click a group from the list to retrieve the articles available in that group.
Now you can read and write articles via our server.
