Perhaps the problem is that you have to go into [Setup...] right away
and define your IP address, Gateway, Subnet Mask, etc. and select [DNS...]
to specify your Domain Name Server. Did you do this?

If everything else fails, call  you local network administrators.
They will give you the nameservers off the cuff.

The term "subscribe" does not really apply within WinVN. As it says
in the help file, this expression is only used because of
tradition. If you "subscribe" to a group in WinVN, the only thing that happens
is that the group is shuffled to the top portion in your
group-list, and printed in blue. You can fetch articles from any
group in the list, "subscribed" to or not. My experiences
are from ver 0.82 and later. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Uh... not quite. Undefined Dynalink is an error given by Windows when it
cannot find one or more procedures that a program uses in a particular
DLL, it is not just with CTL3D.DLL... Additionally, CTL3D.DLL does not
export any function called "Dynalink()"
