When using the charmm forcefield, the following is the case:
1. ffnonbonded.itp - has listed paramters for tip3p (and other water models) OWT3 and HWT3
2. ffbonded.itp - does not have paramters for OWT3 and HWT3
Does this mean: 1. nonbonded parameters for tip3p are read from ffnonbonded.itp for ALL nonbonded interactions OR for water-water interactions are read from tip3p.itp file and for protein-water are read from ffnonbonded.itp?

Nonbonded interactions are applied uniformly, unless they are modified in a specific [nonbond_params] directive. Isn't this something we've worked through before?

2.bonded paramters for tip3p are read from tip3p.itp file?

Bonded parameters for water models are really only relevant if using a flexible model (which you shouldn't). Otherwise, the SETTLE algorithm simply fixes the geometry. This is all determined by the #ifdef FLEXIBLE statement in, for instance, tip3p.itp.
