Dear all,

I am trying to run MD with ntf=6 to constrain some interactions within the
molecule. But when I set ntc=3, the MD clashed with the following message. So I
think it might be the ntc & ntf are not proper. When ntc=ntf=3 it is OK. But I
want to constrain some other bonds and angles. Then how should I set the value?

  Here is the input file:

MD in-vacuo, 999.0 angstrom cutoff
 &cntrl
   igb = 0, ntb = 0, ntpr = 100, ntwx = 100, ntwe = 100,
                                                                               
   cut = 999.0, ntc = 3, ntf = 6,
                                                                               
   tempi = 300.0, temp0 = 300.0, ntt = 1, tautp = 0.5,
                                                                               
   imin = 0,
   nstlim = 1000000, dt = 0.001,
                                                                               
 &end

  Coordinate resetting (SHAKE) cannot be accomplished,
     deviation is too large
     NITER, NIT, LL, I and J are : 0 2 20 39 40

     Note: This is usually a symptom of some deeper
     problem with the energetics of the system.
 

What is the deeper problem here? Is it serious? How can I modify it?

And I want to keep running the MD with the lowest energy frame so I need its
restrt file to use the crd & velocity. But I cannot get the correct restrt file
with carnal and ptraj. Thanks a lot in advace.
