Hi Justin,

Please, confirm this, you mean that this pdb worked for you with '-ignh'?

Gosh...

So I may not loosing my mind when I said that it was working before.

So, I am running:
- Mac Osx 10.5.7 intel.
- Gromacs 4.0.5 (from Fink) with ffamber;
- Compilers from Fink.

I ran test suite and although I got some fails for complex  and
kernel, nothing for simple or pdb2gmx.? Anyway, I doubt tested suite
would fail because oplsaa is working fine here if I do 'pdb2gmx -f
GGG.pdb -ff oplsaa -ignh'

In any case, many thanks for your attention Justin,

Alan
