The frcmod file just gives parameters; the bonds themselves have to be placed
in whatever residue library file you are using. If you "edit" your residue
in xleap, you can draw in the needed bonds graphically. Or, if you use a mol2
file for the residue, you can add the O-O bonds manually in there. Other
possibilities exist, depending on how you constructed the residue library.

...good luck..dac
