Have you looked at testjobs/h2omc_freq.test ?

Dear all,
in the manual of molpro 2006 it say that it's possible to calculate  
analytical second derivative using

multi;cpmcscf,hess


use analytical second derivatives of the energy‭. ‬At  
present‭, ‬analytical
second derivatives are only possible for closed shell Hartree-Fock
‭(‬HF‭) ‬and MCSCF wavefunctions without symmetry‭. ‬It is  
not yet possible
to calculate IR-intensities analytically‭. ‬Note that‭, ‬due  
to technical
reasons‭, ‬the analytical MCSCF second derivatives have to be  
computed
in the MCSCF-program using e.g‭. ‬multi‭; ‬cpmcscf,hess
‭(‬see‭ ‬MULTI‭) ‬before they can be used in‭ ‬ 
FREQUENCIES‭. ‬If analytical
MCSCF second derivatives are available‭, ‬FREQUENCIES‭ ‬will
use them by default‭.‬



however, i can't get the right syntax for it to work.
any suggestion ?

cheers,
oded
