I am starting again my calculations for the real system and this am going to use as starting positions distances in intervals of 0.1nm. Some of them aren't really 0.1nm apart since the distance between the twogroups in my first trajectory does not always increase in a steady way, but the average distance between them is close enough to 0.1nm. I looked back in the mailing list and found something about applying restraints to these simulation windows. I imagine these restraints refer to the umbrella potential still on and not actual restraining as in adding -DPOSRES, right?

Without a link to the post you're reading, I can't comment on that. It probably refers to the umbrella biasing (restraining) force, but without context, that's just a guess.

One other thing I've noticed is that the distance between my groups decrease in several of my windows, as one would expect since the two structures still interact with each other, and in some cases they get back to the original distance prior to the separation. Is this normal for the WHAM analysis?

I don't understand what you mean. There should be some fluctuation about a mean position in each window. The umbrella potential maintains this distance, on average, if you're doing things right.
