Hi,

I think the Amber 14 manual has a decent description of how the atom
masks work in the cpptraj hbond command. In the first case (where the
mask :126,252 is given) you restrict your donor/acceptor search to
those two residues, and consequently obtain only hydrogen bonds
including those two residues. If you don't specify a mask (your second
case), as stated in the manual:

"all solute atoms if no mask speciļ¬ed"

which is why you get more hydrogen bonds.

Hope this helps,

-Dan
