Dear David, all, I'm not 100% sure that i'm doing everything right, mainly because I have found only a slight record about pairtypes 2,3 in the manual. And on the revision list for GROMACS 3.3 this feature is the very last on the list. So I wonder if it was really implemented in 3.3.1 release?
However, it seems to me that grompp (3.3.1) really disregards the interaction type for pairs. E.g. setting arbitary function type (like 8 or 9) for pair interactions gives no error message whereas doing the same for other forcefiels directives would yield an error: interaction type undefined.
