Filip -
The restraints stuff is supported and tested to some extent, but because
this is less used code, there is always the possibility of an error. If you
will make a tarball of all your input and send it to me, I will be glad to
determine if there is a problem with the code (and fix it), or if this is
"pilot error". I presume your mdin file does not really have the group
restraints at the top (I believe there at least used to be a restriction on
placement of this stuff; some mods were made in pmemd to make it more robust
in the face of disordered namelist input, but I am not sure off the top of
my head about being able to read restraints anywhere). Also, what version
of pmemd are you using?
Thanks - Bob Duke
(send tarball to rduke.email.unc.edu)
