RESP charges

Dear amber users,

I am trying to calculate charges (with RESP) for
mdified T base. But, before getting to modifed base I
decided to generate charges for T base to make sure I
get same (or similar) charges as reported in
all_nucleic94.in

I ran Gaussian98 on DT fragment from all_nucleic94.in
without PO2 group. H was added to O5' and O3'. I got
potential points, and ran 2stage RESP (inputs below).
Below is a charge comparison table. Resulting charges
are quite different especially O5' and C5.

What could be the problem? Am I using right theory and
basis sets? Are my RESP inputs correct or am I missing
something?

Thanks in advance.

Eva.
