Also, don't forget to add ncs.find_automatically=false


I have run many runs with NCS defined with proper syntax, just to be 
overwritten by NCS derived automatically by phenix, until I realized 
what was happening. I have always thought that if I define the NCS 
restraints, phenix should follow it, not try to "improve" upon it.  What 
is the reason for this default behavior?
