The authors obtain sufficient conditions for the existence of at least three positive solutions of the following multipoint boundary value problem \[ u''+h(t)f(u)=0, \quad t\in (0,1),\quad u'(0)=\sum_{i=1}^{m-2} b_i u'(\xi_i),\;u(1)=\sum_{i=1}^{m-2} a_i u(\xi_i), \] where \(\xi_i\in(0,1)\) with \(0<\xi_1<\xi_2<\dots<\xi_{m-2}<1\), \(a_i, b_i \in [0,\infty)\) with \(0< \sum_{i=1}^{m-2} a_i<1\) and \(0< \sum_{i=1}^{m-2} b_i<1\), \(f\in C([0,\infty), [0,\infty))\) and \(h\) is a nonnegative measurable function on \([0,1]\) with \(0<\int_0^1h(t)dt<\infty\).
