You'll need to post the vmd question to the vmd-l list. Please don't
cross-post to both the vmd and namd lists the same question.
WRT your NAMD question .... forgive me perhaps failing to understand your
request, but would your problem not be solved by solvating your hexane in a
box of water, like TIP3P or similar, and then simulating?
