[gmx-users] Re: Reg: Gromacs binary liquid-liquid simulation

[Justin A. Lemkul]

Please keep all Gromacs-related correspondence on the gmx-users list.  I am not 
a private tutor.  I am CC'ing the message to the list and I would ask that you 
keep all further discussion going there.

There is a mismatch between your .top and .gro, but what it is I cannot say. 
Determine how many molecules of hexane and water have been added by the commands 
you gave below; these numbers should be assigned in the [molecules] section of 
the .top file.
