Ross,
No, it isn't putting them in the frcmod file. The errors I show are in leap
when it tries to generate the prmtop file; it can't find some of the
torsions it's looking for. And I had just applied all of the bugfixes two
days before sending my original e-mail, so if it's a bug that has been
fixed, the patch should be included in my compilation of amber.
Thanks,
David
