NetBios messages on my network

I ran Wireshark, and saw that I'm getting NetBios queries every .7 seconds from an old NT server we have on our network. Does that seem excessive, or does it sound about right?

I think it's pretty normal as long as the Netbios is still enabled on that NT server. You can enable the firewall on other computer to drop the netbios traffic.
Also you can try to run following commands in NT's command prompt in order to stop those netbios and some default hidden shares. Test and see how it works.
net share /delete C$ /y net share /delete D$ /y net share /delete E$ /y net share /delete F$ /y net share /delete IPC$ /y net share /delete ADMIN$ /y net stop "Remote Registry Service" net stop "Computer Browser" net stop "Server" >> server.txt net stop "REMOTE PROCEDURE CALL" net stop "REMOTE PROCEDURE CALL SERVICE" net stop "Remote Access Connection Manager" net stop "telnet" net stop "messenger" net stop "netbios" net stop "Net Logon" net stop "TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper Service"
Hope helps..

Where is your wins server? If its on the nt server the traffic you are seeing can also be netbios resolutions from clients.
