Hi,

I note in newsfeeds.conf you have an ihave feed defined for receiving news,
and you are trying to post messages back to the server using a sucking feed?

newsfeeds.conf defines outgoing feeds, so if you are trying to send posts
using an ihave feed, then you will need to change newsfeeds.conf as follows

site news.cis.dfn.de
   groups *,!localgroups.*
   onlyposts
   builtin

also, remove (from dnews.conf if you don't wish to use sucking feeds.)
    nntp_feeder ...
and add
    cachedall true

If you simply wish to use sucking, then use

site news.cis.dfn.de
    type builtin
    onlyposts
    groups *,!localgroups.*

and add your user name and password to the nntp_feeder entry in dnews.conf

    nntp_feeder news.cis.dfn.de  *,!localgroups.* username pass
