Dear gromacs users, i ´ve beem trying to get the geometries of a drug
molecule permeating an ion channel,
the drug molecule is in a greater Z position than the Protein, but i always
get the error :"Segmentation fault (core dumped)"
this is my .mdp

pull_pbcatom0   = 8485

According with other post, i have to select a pull_pbcatom0 closes to the
middle of my reference ( an atom close to the middle of the ion channel's
pore) and a pull_vec1 positive even if the drug is "above" the channel, i
was wondering if you could help me with this, or giving me an advice of this
error, thanks in advance
