Typically, the more information you provide the easier it is for us to debug
what's happening (i.e. how you created your files, what force field you
used, what kind of simulation you're running with input files, etc.).
However, this message only arises in one instance in sander. It appears as
though you're trying to do a GBSA MD simulation using gbsa=1. In this case,
the Fe radius used for calculating the SASA is unknown, so it is just using
Carbon's radius in its place. If you want to provide your own radius,
you'll have to modify the sander source code (search for "Using carbon SA"
in $AMBERHOME/src/sander/mdread.f). You will have to add another
else if (atype == 'Fe') then
...
block in that area to set that radius properly. You can get descriptions of
the pointers (i.e. l170, l175, etc.) in $AMBERHOME/src/sander/locmem.f.
Hope this helps,
Jason
