I would recommend sticking with gaff, and ignoring the frcmod.urea file. That
way, you have a consistent approach. Note that it may still not be accurate
enough to provide accurate thermoynamics for a fluid mixture, and you should
consult the literature to see what force fields others have used (and perhaps
optimized) for urea-based solvents.
Also: be sure to use gaff2 and parmchk2: these are likely to be better suited
for liquid properties than the gaff version 1.x (no guarantees, however.)
...good luck....dac
