Hi, Great that you solved it. For the record, this is an excellent example why you should never, ever, use soft NFS mounts. If you stick to hard mounts the clients might hang while the server isn't responding, but at least you won't lose data. Cheers, Erik On Jul 18, 2007, at 2:48

There is a niche for implicit solvent if you need to do more extensive conformational sampling than you can achieve with atomically detailed solvent---and if you can plausibly argue that you are not introducing such egregious systematic errors that you are just sampling more junk. At 09:23
