Hi,

A leased line ussually needs some changes to the defaults, since
the line is always 'open'. It looks a bit like a nullmodem
connection between 2 hosts. My guess is to strip the following
commands from /etc/ppp/options:
crtscts
modem
(passive) (not sure)

Your modem might also require an init string to set it to leased
line mode, if so, you'll need to change your dial script to set it
to the mode. 

I never did this myself, so some configuration files and the output
of the commands you use are appreciated :)
