To much Broadcast Traffic

We are running netware 4.11 and all NT 4.0 clients. A recent sniff of the network showed a huge increase in broadcast traffic. The novell servers are all on the same network and only run IPX. Some of the broadcast traffic is RIP and SAP routing from the novell servers. Easy enough to disable however the netbios broadcast traffic is overwhelming. We are thinking WINS Server, is there a better way? Can we limit NWLink Netbios broadcast traffic from our workstations?<br>

Thanks Much!
