Andy,


If I were your system, I would explode immediately and never let run myself again.



b0 (N-N) = (0.552+0.552)=1.104 nm. How should the system behave with such unrealistic solvent and huge energies respectively?

AS> Attached is all the files for my forcefield.  In ffgmxnb.itp there are two sets of data used for C-N, C-O, and O-N.  One set of data is from literature I found and is commented out.  The other is from combining like in the gromacs manual with the values given from the ffgmxnb.itp file. Thanks for the help.
