No no. They won't. And they're not intended to. The amber.prmtop file
you generated is ONLY for analysis and visualization use. The only reason
this option exists is because some programs do not recognize chamber-style
topology files.
Again: _only_ use the chamber-generated prmtop to actually run simulations
and use the amber.prmtop file for programs that read standard Amber
topology files but not chamber-style topology files (like ptraj).
