Thank you for the detailed advice.
The last problem I'm having (for now) is figuring out where I define the Scratch Directory. Is it in the RED-vIII program?
Thanks (from someone who is just learning this program and is very appreciative).
Mike

Dear Mike,

If you want to use PC-GAMESS, just set $QMSOFT = "PC-GAMESS"; line 3631 (end of the code)

Concerning your P2N fie:
Your residue names were not correct: Residue names have to follow the residue numbers. Then, in a same residue two atoms cannot have two identical atom names.
Please, read about the PDB format: See http://www.wwpdb.org/docs.html
I corrected your PDB file (before creation of the p2n file format using Ante_R.E.D.):
For instance:

R.E.D. fully handles multiple residue names in the Tripos mol2 file format...
For terminal fragments, you will need Methylamonium and/or acetate as well.
