First, it's odd that you are specifying atoms as donors/acceptors that
don't exist in your system. Are you sure there should be hydrogen
bonds between the atoms you're defining? Also, you're using both an
angle and distance cutoff, so even if the atoms are close they will
not be recorded as hydrogen bonds if the angle isn't right.

You could try the 'hbond' command in cpptraj as well which takes some
of the guesswork out of specifying donors/acceptors.
