ambmask doesn't so much generate files as identify which atoms, if any, will be identified by a particular mask. Once you've established what mask you want, you can supply it as a string, enclosed within 'single quotation marks', to e.g. restraintmask in your mdin file.
For more information on how masks are constructed and how ambmask is to be used, you're invited to look at page 267 and following pages in the Amber 11 manual (or its equivalent in earlier versions of the manual).
Hope that helps.
Ben
