If you are an NIH employee OR if your institution does not appear in the search box, follow these steps to authenticate through NIH:
...
A. Visit https://www.rarediseasesnetwork.org/ and choose “RDCRN Members Login” in the upper right corner of the page. Click the button on the bottom left of the RDCRN login page labeled “NIH.”
B. Enter your NIH or eRA Commons credentials.
C. If your NIH/eRA e-mail address is already registered with the DMCC and associated with a consortium, then you will see the Members Landing Page next. Please proceed to Step 2, below.
D. If your NIH/eRA e-mail address is not already registered with the DMCC and associated with a consortium, you will arrive at an Account Request form. Please choose your consortium, complete the form and press “Submit.” DMCC project managers will check with your consortium leadership and assign you to the correct permissions group. NOTE: Please allow five working days for this process. We are likely to experience high initial volume of such requests and will respond as quickly as possible.

NOTE #2: The login page remembers your last several login routes that were used in a web browser and provides a single-click authentication option for returning users. As an example, see the screenshot below.
NOTE #3: In the not-too-distant future we’ll be implementing login.gov as an authentication method for the RDCRN members’ web site. Login.gov is run by the General Services Administration of the US Federal Government and anyone can sign up for a free account. If your institution doesn’t federate identities with InCommon or with RDCRN directly, and unless you can come in through eRA Commons or an institution that does federate, login.gov will be the only way for you to authenticate to RDCRN.
