Use SolvateBox to add waters to a box around a protein. As you found out,
just using the "set" command creates the box, but does not add waters.

If you need a fixed diemsion box, you need to use AddToBox (or a third-party
tool like packmol) to create the solveate system as a pdb file; then load
that into tleap. Since the water is already there, using the "set" command
to tell leap the box size is then the proper thing to do.

...good luck...dac
