I just tried to follow the examples with already prepared files from the 
web tutorial which I have all in the same directory.
After I start perl RED-vIII.pl
---------------------------

        ERROR: The initial P2N file can not be found
Do you think there could be any problems with RED because I use AMBER8.0 
and not AMBER9.0 version?
At the same time when I do test/antechamper/Run_tp_resp I get this:
