It definitely does not complain on these two systems, but yes, sticking it
in the groupfile seems to have solved the problem. Thanks! (I would
suggest that maybe this should be changed in the manual, because p165
talks about -remlog in the same paragraph as -rem and -ng, both of which
are given outside the groupfile.)
The page 166 example is missing the "-rem 1" in the arguments to sander.
One can infer it pretty easily from the paragraph below (or from comparing
with the command line in the AMBER8 manual), but it's easy to miss.
