If you're talking abt solaris, then,
netgroup.byhost -MAP
netgroup -NIS ADMIN FILE
Contains group name, user name and machine name -DESCR
On a network using NIS, the netgroup input file on the master NIS server is used for generating three maps: netgroup, netgroup.byuser, and netgroup.byhost. The netgroup map contains the basic information in the netgroup input file. The two other NIS maps contain information in a format that speeds lookups of netgroup information, given the machine or user.

local.users
local.users(5) SELinux configuration local.users(5)
NAME
local.users - The SELinux local users configuration file
DESCRIPTION
The file contains local user definitions in the form of policy language user statements and is only found on older SELinux systems as it
has been deprecated and replaced by the semange(8) services.
This file is only read by selinux_mkload_policy(3) when SETLOCALDEFS in the SELinux config file (see selinux_config(5)) is set to 1.
selinux_users_path(3) will return the active policy path to the directory where this file is located. The default local users file is:
/etc/selinux/{SELINUXTYPE}/contexts/users/local.users
Where {SELINUXTYPE} is the entry from the selinux configuration file config (see selinux_config(5)).
FILE FORMAT
The file consists of one or more entries terminated with ';', each on a separate line as follows:
user seuser_id roles role_id [[level level] [range range]];
Where:
user
The user keyword.
seuser_id
The SELinux user identifier.
roles
The roles keyword.
role_id
One or more previously declared role identifiers. Multiple role identifiers consist of a space separated list enclosed in
braces '{}'.
level
If MLS/MCS is configured, the level keyword.
level
The users default security level. Note that only the sensitivity component of the level (e.g. s0) is required.
range
If MLS/MCS is configured, the range keyword.
range
The current and clearance levels that the user can run. These are separated by a hyphen '-' as shown in the EXAMPLE section.
EXAMPLE
# ./users/local.users
user test_u roles staff_r level s0 range s0 - s15:c0.c1023;
