Hello all,

 I am trying calculate desolvation free energy of Na+ in water using option
 couple-moltype, not by creating B-topology in the .top file.

 At first, I switched off coulombic interaction using:

 couple-moltype           = Na+
 couple-lambda0           = vdw-q
 couple-lambda1           = vdw

 Then I tried to switch off LJ interaction using couple-lambda0 = vdw and
 couple-lambda1 = none, but obtained this warning:

 WARNING 1 [file equil_NVT000.mdp, line 95]:
   For proper sampling of the (nearly) decoupled state, stochastic dynamics
 should be used

 This is strange, because my .mdp file has only 94 lines.

 Thanks in advance for any help or suggestion.

 Best,

 Eva

 For convenience, I am pasting weak coupling algorithm section and free
 energy section from my .mdp file. The simulation was performed at constant
 volume using strong temperature coupling, since it was an equilibration
 run.
