UNIX comment field in the NIS file, are identical then a mapping
association is automatically created in the user map file.

file and Windows primary group account occurs. Any mapping
between group accounts must be done by editing the group map file
for each account.

and the UNIX NIS group account names are identical then a mapping
association is automatically created in the group map file.
