If a box of *about* 4.5 nm in size would work, to this in tleap:

solvateBox PEP TIP3PBOX 22.0 0.8

where "PEP" is the unit name for your dipeptide. (Note that this is way more
water than you need to simulate the properties of a dipeptide in water.)

Getting a box exactly 4.5 nm on a side is actually rather difficult, since
box size changes as you run a constant pressure simulation.
