Re: [AMBER] temperature control issue during constant pH simulation with explicit solvent model

it might help with troubleshooting if you tell us whether the thermostat
worked before this step. for example, is the system already equilibrated
before this step? have you done normal MD on this system without any of the
constant pH variables in the mdin? what happened then? if it isn't well
equilibrated a smaller gamma_ln might be a good idea.
