Not exactly; this will just give the RMSD with respect to the ligands
position in the first frame. You should first fit on the protein, then
do 'nofit' RMSD on the ligand (so that it's actually calculated in the
reference frame of the protein). So e.g. (assuming your protein is
molecule 1):

rms Protein ^1.C,CA,N mass
rms rms1 :LIG&!.H= nofit mass out results/lig_probb_rmsd.dat

Hope this helps,
