I only used pdb2gmx when I prepared the DNA which I created with nab.
and the command that  I used was:

14 r_10                :    64 atoms

15 r_17                :    64 atoms
This are the coordinates for the residues:

  Dear Justin,

When I try to select 10DA residue from one strand and 17DT from the other
strand,I type r10 and r17 and both select 64 atoms, after r26 it selects water
molecules.

You can easily check (using a text editor) which atoms make_ndx is choosing.  In
theory, your approach is correct and very straightforward.  Can you please 
provide?

1. Your exact make_ndx command
2. A few lines from residue 10DA of whatever coordinate file you're using
3. The index group produced from residue 10

Did you renumber the file at any point, for instance, with pdb2gmx?  That is,
whatever started out as residue 10 may not still be numbered as such in the
topology and any resulting coordinate files produced from the simulation.
Without knowing exactly what you're using as make_ndx input, it's hard to track
down what's going on.

And then I check for
  Hbonds with g_hbond  I get 3 Hbonds, but between A and T
they form 2 Hbonds?
It seems I'm doing something wrong.
What can I do in this case?
Thanks in advance,
Best regards,
Hovakim

You can use make_ndx to select any residues you want. You'll have to describe
exactly what you did that produced insufficient results.  Saying it didn't work
well doesn't tell us anything, because it is in fact quite easy to produce
usable index groups.
