Justin In regard to my query regarding the cut-offs at zero with no pbc. I assume its is fine to have box dimensions (0 0 0) to comply with the definition of a vacuum simulation. I am just worried that there may be some default cut-off that I am not aware of. Cheers P.S I have plotted the

Dear Gavin: What happens if you replace your reference group by a single water molecule and your pulled group by a single water molecule and run the 2.35 nm simulation again. Do you get the same two-peaked histogram? What about if you use a system with a single water for the reference
