[gmx-users] Trying to add Buck.ham (SR) while the default nonbond type is LJ (SR)

Hello Mark,

thanks for the reply. The point is, I don't. I found some Lennard-Jones 
parametrization in literature that distinguishes between intra- and 
intermolecular (oxygen atom of water) interactions. My intention was 
thus to define the specific eps_ij and sigma_ij for the corresponding 
atomtypes, which I thought should be dealt with in the [ nonbond_params 
] section. All parameters are for Lennard-Jones and this is the 
potential I want to use. I have no idea why the usage of Buckingham is 
assumed. I'm using Gromacs 5.1 btw.

Thanks,
Andreas
