Hello,

I need to calculate the forces (derivatives) for every atom in a protein
as this is being locally minimized using mdrun.

When I run mdrun I can get the maximum force F-max and the atom on which this
force is evaluated printed in the log file (for example,
"F-max             =  2.20323e+03 on atom 2641 ".)

I need to be able to compute the force value on every atom of the protein.
How can I do this with Gromacs?

I set the parameter nstfout = 10 in my .mdp file but this doesn't seem to make a difference.

"nstfout = 10" writes the per-atom forces to the trajectory file every 10 steps, which you can verify with gmxcheck and/or gmxdump. I haven't verified that these actually get written for energy minimization, and they probably wouldn't get written at all if your EM doesn't get to 10 steps....
