"vdwradii.dat" is one for all atoms. It is in the same directory with
built-in topologies. The atom names in your conf.gro and this "vdwradii.dat"
should coincide, while genbox is operating.

Use *freeze groups* and *freeze dimensions* keywords. See reference for
parameters in MDP to get exact names of them.
