Open-shell SCF calculation with transition metals

Hello everyone,
I'm fairly new to using MOLPRO, and I'm having trouble getting an
open-shell SCF calculation to converge to the correct state.
My problem is occuring as I compare single-point ROHF calculations with
results from ACES before moving on to MR-CI calculations. I'm working with
FeCN and the Roos Augmented DZ ANO basis set.
Energies and frequencies work fine with various quartet-states, but if I
get convergence with a sextet-states (which is rare), I often get a much
higher energy than the corresponding ACES calculation. Orbital rotations,
different orbital guesses, and level shifting do not alleviate the
problem. Here's an input file of a 6-Delta state, any suggestions? Thanks!
