Dear Ross,
Many thanks for all your help. I cannot find anything useful in 4096 test directory. Test failed and no errors show in the 4096 test directory. We want to run amber on a computer which has 2 quad core processors so no ssh or rsh is required. I believe I can run pmemd parallel as
mpiexec -np 8 pmemd
I will need to read the manual before I will find out if it works.
