Dear Stephane:
We discussed this in April:
http://lists.gromacs.org/pipermail/gmx-users/2011-April/060839.html
At that time I also provided a method for you to verify your files
(and the method in general).
It is possible for you to answer your gen-pairs question by looking
into the manual and reading about pairs, gen-pairs, and pairtypes. I
think that this is one case where you would benefit more from fully
understanding how these parts work than from a direct answer to your
question.
If you are having problems, please provide a whole bunch more
information on the problems that you are seeing. If, on the other
hand, you are just looking for somebody other than me to comment on
the accuracy of the April post, then that is perfectly fine with me,
but you should state that.
Chris.

Dear All,
I try to apply the half double pair list method for a system containing a
glycolipid surfactant and a peptide modeled with the GLYCAM and AMBER99SB
force field. Briefly what I did :
1- I have changed the forcefield.itp like this
[ defaults ]
; gen_pairs set explicitly ---> gen-pairs = "no"
; nbfunc comb-rule gen-pairs fudgeLJ fudgeQQ
;1 2 yes 0.5 0.8333 ---> for
AMBER99SB only
1 2 no 1.0 0.16666666666666 ---
for both GLYCAM et AMBER99SB
;1 2 yes 1.0 1.0 --> for
GLYCAM only
#include "ffnonbonded_mod.itp"
#include "ffbonded.itp"
2- For the surfactant, I have calculated the pair-types interactions
manually with the comb-rule = 2 and divided the values /6 and added these
values in [pairtypes] section in the ffnonbonded_mod.itp files
3- For the peptide, I have calculated the pair-types interactions manually
comb-rule = 2 and divided the values /10 and added these values in
[pairtypes] section in the ffnonbonded_mod.itp files.
4- In the surfactant topology file I have repeated 6 times the [pairs]
directives 0.166666*6 ~=10
5 - In the peptide topology file I have repeated 5 times the [pairs]
directives 0.166666*5 ~= 0.8333
Is it correct ?
However I have a little doubt about "gen-pairs" directive should I have set
it to "no" or "yes". in a previous message with a similar problem, the gen
directive was set "yes"

Thank you for your help
