In my humble opinion YOU have to decide wether your structure looks like what you want. I only can/will expand somewhat on my previous advice to look at case.outputnn and to compare structures in xcrysden:

Since xcrysden is difficult about arrows, do this in colors: You have 4 purple marbles in your unit cell. There are 3 ways to replace two of them by identical green marbles, depicted as AFM I - III in your figure. So, to avoid the fuss of talking xcrysden into plotting arrows, take the supercell generated .struct file and produce 3 different .struct files by replacing two Ni with, say, Co. Look at these with xcrysden and decide which is what. Rename all Ni-colored atoms Ni1, all Co-colored atoms Ni2 (and perhaps make all S identical) and ask sgroup what it thinks of the idea.

As for the mysterious downgrading from rhombohedral to monoclinic: Look at your structures along the (1,1,1) direction. Is there a 3-fold symmetry?

I hope this helps,

Hello again

Here is the 3 different AFM configurations

Here are the 4 independent Ni atoms

Now the big problem lies in if is it possible tp get a monoclinic
structure (space group #11) with orthorhombic lattice parameters as we
know that the rhombohedral structure in wien2k is represented bt a
hexagonal lattice parameters.
