Dear Gromacs users,

                           i am adding new residue to the existing charmm27
force field of the gromacs and i am planning to use buckingham potential
for the non bonded interactions. for that i made following changes to the
ffnonbonded.itp file

 [ atomtypes ]

;########### I have given the A(in KJ/mol), B(in nm^-1), C(in Kj/mol*nm^6)
;D = A, B = 1/P, C = E

and in the default directive of the forcefield.itp  i made the following
changes
 [ defaults ]
; nbfunc        comb-rule       gen-pairs       fudgeLJ fudgeQQ
2       1       no      0.0     0.0

what values should i give for the sigma and epsilon in the [ atomtype ]
directive and pairtypes directive . if i ignore the pair types it giving
error  no default Lj 1-4 interactions. though i am using nbfun as 2 to use
the  buckingham potential. I have only the values of the A,B,C. How to get
sigma and epsilon if they are required.
Did i modify the ffnonbonded.itp in the  correct manner ? or any thing went
wrong?

please help me in this regard.

Thank you in advance.

Regards,
Ramesh.
