Hi,
I had the same problem as the one raised by Tom before.
http://amber.ch.ic.ac.uk/archive/200405/0357.html
When I solvate my system using xleap from Amber8 compiled using PGI 4.1 Fortran Complier on IBM Blade Servers runing RedHat 7.3, it gave me such info:
> solvatebox h2 TIP3PBOX 8
Solute vdw bounding box: 54.447 57.136 62.692
Total bounding box for atom centers: 70.447 73.136 78.692
Solvent unit box: 18.774 18.774 18.774
Total vdw box size: 73.553 62.128 75.570 angstroms.
Volume: 345334.587 A^3
Total mass 304917.158 amu, Density 1.466 g/cc
Added 14532 residues.
And when I look at the structure, my protein is not been totally solvated, only part of it is in the rectangular waterbox. I checked the pdb file and found thre are ~20 waters in the same position.
I followed Dr. Case's advice and solwated ACE:

I didn't experiece this problem using xleap from amber8 on SGI.
Does anyone have any idea what is going on? Any comments will be appreciated!
Thanks,
Jufang
