PS: the reason I asked is because the leap input you provided didn't work.

If you look at the output structure of leap, I think you will see that a few of the hydrogen atoms are incorrectly placed. I corrected this by only loading glycam06 parameters and suppressing the the protein force field loading (i.e. xleap -s -f leap.in). This then gave me the correct spatial structure of the carbohydrate. (I have not tried to reproduce this error using gleap or sleap.) However, if this works for you, then I think you will need to include the ions into glycam sourcing (I am pretty sure their parameters are sourced with the protein force field only, but not 100% sure about that).
