Did this really give you a solid white background with objects casting 
shadows on it?
  I've got win Pov3.6 and it didn't work for me.

This is what I have to use

//area light
light_source{<10,20,10> color White area_light x*8,y*8,4,4}

//background
plane{y,0 pigment{White*3}}
cylinder{-y,y*50,20 pigment{White} finish{ambient 1} hollow}

//object to show
cylinder{0,y*2,.5 pigment{Red}}
