That looks just fine, other than you must not have any whitespace in front of
the keyword "backbone." I think you need to have tabs (not spaces) between
the keyword and the argument, too. If that *still* doesn't work, then I'm not
sure why; we run the identical software here without problem.

Your supplier is wrong. If you get it on a tape from Pyramid, it's supported.
It doesn't matter that the software was originally public domain.
