Re: [AMBER] Distance restraint not working

Hi,
Is that exactly the input file you used? Because I see a exclamation mark
in front of nmropt, which in practice is as having nmropt = 0. When
restraints are correctly used there is a report of the parsing in the
output header, and restraint energies are reported additionally to the
usual energies.
Hope it helps,
