This is hardly true....just Google for "gzip windows" for example.

You need to use the "set" command in LEaP to add the box information
after you load the packmol pdb file.

Also note: a box size of 9 Ang or so is too small for Amber. The box
size has to be at least twice the cutoff, so as a practical matter, the
smallest box that really works is about 18 Ang.
