Well, you could find this message:
http://amber.ch.ic.ac.uk/archive/200311/0037.html
which basically tells you (correctly) that this cannot be done without code
modifications. Amber doesn't allow bonds to cross between unit cells.
The "fix" is not all that complicated, but definitely would require a fair
amount of work from someone who understood with sander or pmemd.
(Note: Tom Bishop reports getting this to work in NAMD, using amber prmtop
files, and hence [I assume] the Amber force field:
