Hi Deb, I recently installed dssp for Gromacs 4.5.4 on RHEL4
You have to just copy the dsspcmbi downloaded from linux distribution to /usr/local/bin (No need to set an environment variable DSSP if dspcmbi is in /usr/loca/bin as it is the default path for gromacs) Rename the dsspcmbi to dssp chmod +x dssp is required if doesn't show as executable. Run do_dssp at any other location. This worked for me.
