Scale Employee Portal with multiple NAS Servers

We would like to use multiple NAS/NEP servers with their Message Queues.

But the setup for the 'web config' in the documentation doesn't work.

"If for example, you use three request queues named NEPJob1, NEPJob2 and NEPJob3
and two reply queues named NEPReply1 and NEPReply2, the QueueManagement in
Web.Config must look like this:
<add key="QueueManagement" value="">
<!-- specify message queue connection strings -->
<Queues>
<Queue qid="1" connstr="FormatName:DIRECT=TCP:192.168.1.3\private$\NEPJob1" />
<Queue qid="2" connstr="FormatName:DIRECT=TCP:192.168.1.3\private$\NEPJob2"/>
<Queue qid="3" connstr="FormatName:DIRECT=TCP:192.168.1.3\private$\NEPJob3" />
<Queue qid="4" connstr=".\private$\NEPReply1" />
<Queue qid="5" connstr=".\private$\NEPReply2" />
</Queues>
<!-- specify default job and reply queue (priority 1) -->
<!--DefaultQueues>
<JobQueue qid="1" />
<ReplyQueue qid="4" />
</DefaultQueues-->
<!-- specify queue mapping and queue order (priority 2) -->
<QueueMapping>
<Queue mappingid="1" jobid="1" replyid="4" />
<Queue mappingid="2" jobid="2" replyid="5" />
<Queue mappingid="3" jobid="3" replyid="4" />
</QueueMapping>
</add>
"

Error on the </Queues> line

Any suggestions?
