<P>Replicating a system that has rigid bodies (defined via the <A HREF = "fix_rigid.html">fix

created the restart file which was read in before replicating, can
cause problems if there is a bond between a pair of rigid bodies that
straddle a periodic boundary. This is because the periodic image
information for particles in the rigid bodies are set differently than
for a non-rigid system and can result in a new bond being created that
spans the periodic box. Thus you cannot use the replicate command in
this scenario.
