[gmx-developers] bonding problem in simulating multiple objects in the same box

[Justin Lemkul]

This is not an appropriate question for the development list; please post to 
gmx-users.

You got a reply to this same question already:

https://mailman-1.sys.kth.se/pipermail/gromacs.org_gmx-users/2014-February/087017.html

If there are further questions based on that response, please post those rather 
than posting the same thing multiple times.
