that is the correct procedure. Did you use the parameters in
eginput/PSF_generation/cysp.par? These should work fine. Where were the
violations (these should be reported)?

yes. replace the lines

protocol.addUnknownAtoms(dyn_stepsize=0.01)
protocol.fixupCovalentGeom(sel=notKnown)

with 

import protocol
try:
    protocol.addUnknownAtoms(dyn_stepsize=0.01)
    protocol.fixupCovalentGeom(sel=notKnown)
except protocol.CovalentViolation:
    pass

This is an ongoing project of mine. It would be helpful if you upload your
failing case to
ftp://nmr.cit.nih.gov/pub/schwitrs/incoming/
so that I can fix it in future versions. Also, please tell me which
platform you're running on.

thanks and best regards--
Charles
