Dear all,

I tried to follow the tutorial of biotin to do MD simulation with cap
water, but I got the following message when run minimization.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  [-O]verwriting output

File Assignments:
|MDIN : min_cap.in
|MDOUT: min_cap.out
|INPCR: fg_cap.crd

|RESTR: min_cap.xyz
|REFC : fg_cap.crd
|MDVEL: mdvel
|MDEN : mden
|MDCRD: mdcrd
|MDINF: mdinfo

 Here is the input file:
 &cntrl
  imin=1, maxcyc=1000, ntpr=20, scee=1.2, nsnb=999999, ntmin=2,
 &end

   EWALD SPECIFIC INPUT:

     Largest sphere to fit in unit cell has radius = 2.898
 Ewald PARAMETER RANGE CHECKING:
 parameter skinnb+cutoffnb: (nonbond list cut) has value 0.90000E+01
 This is outside the legal range
 Lower limit: 0.00000E+00 Upper limit: 0.28983E+01
 Check ew_legal.h

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So, I need to change the parameters in ew_legal.h file and recompile
sander?

Another question is what is the exact meaning for each term in file
ew_legal.h, and are there some recommandation values for thoes items?

Many thanks.
