I just replaced both rear calipers on a '98 Sable. After reinstalling the brake lines with new washers it leaks from where the brake line goes into the caliper. As far as I know, I didn't need to use sealant on the connection. Is there anything I could do to stop the leak.

take it back off and check/replace the washer -
You may have over-tightened it while installing, which will make them leak...snug is enough, dont crank on it too hard... just a thought
