you want to use a combination of "reference" "rms" and "trajout".
that should do it. the DNA tutorial on the amber web page shows
how to use the reference and rms commands, and trajout is pretty
easy to follow in the amber manual.

you might use something like this:

trajin ./md.x
trajout ./md.fit.x
reference ./ref.crd
rms reference out rmsd.dat @CA,C,N,O,H
go
