If all your machines are using WINS then the broadcasting should be greatly reduced, though I doubt it can be completely eliminated without turning off netbios and using dns names for everything. Even then, you would have to have W2K or higher on the workstations and turn off NetBIOS support. All the older stuff still broadcasts if it doesn't immediately find what it wants. I agree, for PnP networking IPX was the bomb. Sadly, it doesn't have the robustness of TCP/IP. Oh well.
