Do you really only have two atoms in your mask (":DDM.C15,C16")? I think this
might be a degenerate case where the rotation matrices are not well-defined.

Also, have you visualized the trajectory? Is the system undergoing rotational
tumbling? Be sure you can do a "standard" calculation (e.g. where the mask
covers the entire backbone, or the entire backbone that is in secondary
structure), and can understand the results. As I pointed out in an earlier
email, the rotdif command is not suited to analyze rotational behavior of just
part of system.
