Make sure the settings for the nodelist under Settings/Nodelists are correct and either you have placed the nodelist file in the nodelist directory (settinge/Directories) or have a compressed nodelist in the inbound and have properly configured the archive file pattern.

Nodelist processing can be manually triggered using "Fidont/Process Nodelists". However, most people configure WinPoint to automatically process incoming nodelist and/or nodediffs, so manual processing is usually not needed or only used for full nodelists while diffs are processed automatically.  

Most peoply tend to manually decompress the initial nodelist into the nodelist directory and setup the automatic processing for the incoming diffs. As an Example, to process the standard Fidonet nodediff incoming as compressed ZIP in the NODEDIFZ, setup the nodediffs part as:

FileName: NODEDIFF
Archive File Pattern: NODEFIFF.Z??
File Area: NODEDIFZ

This makes WP also look in the file area directory for NODEDIFZ for incoming files.
