Hi Josh
Most unfortunately I missed to indicate the full list of parameter files
used, which includes the one that you rightly suggested (the requested
params are of genff type)

par_all36_carb.prm
par_all36_cgenff.prm
par_all36_lipid.prm
par_all36m_prot.prm
par_all36_na.prm
toppar_all36_na_modifications.str
toppar_all36_na_rna_modified.str
toppar_all36_prot_arg0.str
toppar_water_ions_namd_adapted.str (I just commented out what namd does not
understand)

this is why I don't understand namd's request (the requested params are
available and unnecessary) and I asked whether namd can be forced to
override psfgen (I used autopsfgen because there are so many chains)

thanks for you care
francesco
