Dialup Idle time Disconnect problem

We have some 700 users all accross the country, they use mobile phones to
dial into this server that has 15 mobile phones ( they have built in modems)
connected to it to accept these incoming connections.
The fact is, although the remote users disconnect their connection from
their end after they are done with sending data to this server, these
established connections still stay idle here in this server; so other users
trying to enter into the server gets busy tone.

What I am doing now is disconnecting these connections by going to each of
them in every 15-20 minutes time which is very very annoying and time
consuming and sometimes I forget it.

As these modems are running on standard modem driver, there is no setting
here that would disconnect idle connections after a certain period of time.
The OS is Windows 2000 Server.

is there any solution to this problem that would disconnect these
connections from my end in every 10 minutes to let other users to connect to
the server? Can i use any 3rd party software or any script or anything? Any
help would be highly appreciated.
