These variables must go inside the &cntrl namelist (between &cntrl and /).
 You should move the GROUP input to the end of the input file (I don't
know that this is required, but it is the only way I have ever written
input files).

&end and / are synonyms. The &end here does nothing (and may be
interpreted as a title for your GROUP input.

I don't see where you defined any distance restraints. You turned nmropt
on, but then didn't tell it what to do, so it should not actually apply any
distance restraints.

In your input file, make sure all namelists (i.e., blocks of input
variables beginning with "&name") are terminated with _either_ "/" or
"&end" (but _not_ both). All input variables must be in the correct
namelist. The free-format part of the input (i.e., GROUP input and DISANG
identifier) should come at the end.

HTH,
Jason

P.S. This is a big reason why I prefer masks instead of GROUP input :)
