Hi
I had a similar problem with counter ions when I compile Amber on an
Intel Linux system using Portland Group (PGI) compilers. What version
of Amber do you have, how did you compile it (what compiler), and on
what OS and hardware? I recompiled Amber with g95/gcc (or was it the
Intel compilers) and the counter ions behaved as expected.
Hope this helps
Emilio
