I don't believe that you can automatically mix arithmetic and geometric
mixing rules (or at least I don't know of any mechanism that NAMD has with
which to do this). My guess would be that you would have to create a
specialized prm file that implements appropriate NBFixes for either the
CHARMM or OPLS types.

I have never heard of mixing these two force fields before - is there a
specific reason you are not using CGenFF for the ligand? Presumably that is
the most "literature friendly" approach.
