Fine. Will try that and get back if there is a problem. But i am still
curious as to what was wrong with the ptraj input where i instructed
it to strip the hydrogens.

Sorry, i had initially checked only the first and the last few lines.
But i still do not understand the output after the ****s. Following
are the first few lines after the coordinates of the average structure
and the ****s:

What do the numbers 1 and 340.79792 mean? After the line that gives "1
  340.79792", there are 325*7 + 5 = 2280 (760*3) fractional values.
Which of these are eigenvalues, and which are eigenvectors? Are they
all eigenvalues? Is this output format specified somewhere?
Thanks for your help.

arvind
