[AMBER] help with ewald parameter

Hi,

I am trying to equilibriate a system of one CN- ion and one Na+ atom in
TIP4P water box. I added the charges in CN- by Gaussian (g09) and used ff03
forcefield. The box sizes are 15.408, 15.517, 19.057. The system has 107
water molecules. I need these specific parameters (as I am trying to
reproduce an already published work). I am getting an error while
equilibrating at constant volume:


Ewald PARAMETER RANGE CHECKING:
 parameter skinnb+cutoffnb: (nonbond list cut) has value 0.80000E+01
 This is outside the legal range
 Lower limit: 0.00000E+00 Upper limit: 0.77042E+01
 Check ew_legal.h


I have tried changing the cut=7.5, cut=7.0, cut=6.0 --> every value gave me
same error. Lowering the ewald cut further gives segmentation fault. I do
not want to change the box size and number density (as I realise they are
quite small), so I need help in dealing with this error.

Thank You so much!
