Seems you are working with version 2.7. I'm less familiar with versions lower than 2.8 but here is a suggestion (make sure to backup your current ini file before making the changes.
The only other file needed would be the "5axiskins" file and I _think_ that is present in version 2.7. Also you seem to have the machine configured as XYZAB which seems odd as with the tilting rotational head you posted the rotation axis would be C. I will need to change your ini to the XYZBC setup because the 5axiskins used in the bridgemill simulation config uses that, so you might have to change the axis letter A to B and B to C in your .hal file.
Try changing/ adding the following lines in the sections indicated:
before the spindle section add (you will likely have to adjust the limit and velocity/accelleration values to your needs):
#********************
# Axis W
#********************
[AXIS_5]
TYPE = LINEAR
MIN_LIMIT = -10
MAX_LIMIT = 20
MAX_VELOCITY = 40
MAX_ACCELERATION = 70
HOME_SEARCH_VEL = 0
edit:
Forgot that you will likely also need to add stuff (ie pid) to your .hal file for the W axis so post that file if you are having trouble getting it running
Here is a modified version to try. There will likely be errors on startup if you can't figure those out you will need to post the errors and your ini and hal file.
