Sorry if you get this twice - JISCMAIL said the original did not get
distributed....
The ARIA list would perhaps be the better place to get an answer for this
problem, but since the water refinement CNS script switches to a different form
of the forcefield from the earlier (in vacuo) iterations, the probability is
that your parameter modifications have not been made for the OPLSX section of
the parameter file(s).
Are there any errors reported in your CNS log files (search for ERR)?
