Please take seriously the comments in the Users' Manual:

"The linkprot() and link_na() routines given here are limited commands that
may sometimes be useful, and are included for backwards compatibility with
previous versions of NAB"

and

"The newer (and generally recommended) way to generate biomolecules uses the
getpdb_prm() function described in Chapter 6 [should be 14]"

You can't do this...if you want to run energy minimizations, you need to read
Chapter 14.
