This is a non-trivial topic. You don't "parameterize ligands in NAMD"
you develop an extension for a force field to use in NAMD. As such you
need to follow a procedure that is consistent with the way the force
field was designed, unless you like expensive random number generators.
There used to be a tutorial that touched on this topic - I did one at a
NAMD workshop in 2004... look closely.
