When trying to do an npt run, I get the fatal error: The X-size of the box
(3.999511) times the triclinic skew factor (1.000000) is smaller than the
number of DD cells (4) times the smallest allowed cell size (1.000000).  I
should mention, I'm brand new to using gromacs so any assistance is greatly
appreciated.  My nvt run was fine.  I used the following mdp file:
