FW: AMBER: mpirun sander8 problem

Hi all,

I ran many test cases. When single CPU is used (mpirun -np 1), sander
runs fine. But when two CPUs are used, sander hangs right before:

| Atom division among processors:
| 0 1271

Only the sentence:

Number of triangulated 3-point waters found: 0

is in the output file.

The processes go on though without any additional output and it doesn't
stop. Any idea what might have caused this problem?

Thanks,
Frank
