The exact command is this:pdb2gmx -ff /home/user01/work/oplsaa.ff/ -f PTFE10.pdb -chainsep ter I have created this directory coping the oplssa.ff directory in share utilities (I'm an user not an administrator of the pc) and I cannot modify the original files. I attach the files .pdb, and the files oplssa.rtp ffgmx.rtp and residuetypes.dat that I have modified addying the new residues. (I have also modifed specbond.dat for the two bonds between internal residue and starting/terminal residues.
I don't know if I made mistakes or simply I use badly the command.

The -ff flag takes only the prefix of the force field you're trying to use. Your command is going to look for a directory called /home/user01/work/oplsaa.ff/.ff, which of course does not exist. Put the custom oplsaa.ff directory in your working directory and issue pdb2gmx without the -ff flag. pdb2gmx will prompt you to choose the force field, allowing you to differentiate between oplsaa.ff in the working directory vs. the one in $GMXLIB. -Justin -- ======================================== Justin A.
