Hi Chitrak,
Thank you, but the problem is I can't find those restart files. It seems
like I forgot to add that line on my conf file. So, I want to know if it's
possible to retake my simulation just using the output.dcd file, that'd be
the only way, otherwise I'll have to run my dynamics all over again :(
Thanks,
Daniela.
