You supplied the -f flag with no associated filename, so Gromacs is going to 
assume the default file "eiwit.pdb" is present in the working directory.  No 
need to change system-level files, just supply an input.  I think you tried this 
with the -i flag, which is wrong.  Read the manual and/or pdb2gmx -h.
