You can make integer multiples of a box with genconf -nbox.  Otherwise use 
genbox -cs dppc128.pdb -box (x y z) until you get a system of appropriate size. 
  There was a very similar post yesterday about this same topic.  I would 
suggest you have a look at the information Chris Neale posted about the 
specifics of box size (genbox caveats) and the need for proper equilibration.
