I do not know the reason why you want get the prep
file. It seems not necessary for your purpose.
As you already have your pdb file,just do as the
following:
1. $AMBERHOME/exe/xleap -s -f
$AMBERHOME/dat/leap/cmd/leaprc.ff99
2. model=loadpdb "your pdb file name"
3. Add water box or not.
4. saveamberparm.
Best regards.
