 Thanks David,

    The LJ 1-4 interaction can be modified in [pairs] or [pairtypes] sections.
  I need to use different scaling factors for two 1-4 Coulomb interaction. Can we
  do this using [pairtypes]?  I checked a few force field files, they all used
  two values (c6, c12) or (cs6, cs12), I guess only the LJ 1-4 interaction was
  modified. 
    I managed to convert my force field from DLPOLY to GROMACS. I used nrexcl=2
  to include all 1-4 interaction, also I set gen_pairs=yes, fudgeLJ=-1, fudgeQQ=-0.383
   and in [pairs] I specified a 1-4 atom pairs. This way, two kinds of 1-4 interactions
   can have different scaling factors (one is 1.0, the other is 0.617) for Coulomb 
    interaction. It's not a general way, I don't know how to do it if it needs to 
   use two different Coulomb scaling factors, like 0.6 and 0.8. 

    Thanks very much
