Fwd: [gmx-users] Monitoring the water movement during simulation

I followed the lysozyme tutorial step by step and everything seems to be
fine and the literature cannot be wrong as it has been proved ..
I have repeated this simulation second time... I want to ask one thing that
during solvation step and equilibration step water is mixed with the protein
so it means that the structure should not have water inside it during
equilibration step itself or not ?
