Not a file, a DNS server.
From Wikipedia:
The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical decentralized naming system for computers, services, or other resources connected to the Internet or a private network. It associates various information with domain names assigned to each of the participating entities. Most prominently, it translates more readily memorized domain names to the numerical IP addresses needed for locating and identifying computer services and devices with the underlying network protocols. By providing a worldwide, distributed directory service, the Domain Name System is an essential component of the functionality on the internet, that has been in use since 1985.

What type of file resolves NetBIOS names to IP addresses?
you see the file name is WINS. which stands for window internet name service see the resolution happens like this (p.s WINS, is not a file name it is a protocol) NetBIOS, broadcasts names to listening nodes on the network. NetBIOS utilizes a User Datagram Protocol UDP, query to broadcast names. NetBIOS names identified computer on the network before the introduction of Windows 2000. The NetBIOS name is resolved to an IP address through windows Internet Name Service WINS,broadcasting, or the LMHOSTS file. If the LAN is a NetBIOS LAN, the NetBIOS name is then the network address. The NetBIOS name is assigned by an administrator when the operating system is installed. To enable communication, the following requirements exist. i hope i have helped
What is the difference between (IP) and (NAT)?
What is the real difference between NAT and PAT? NAT is a feature of a router that will translate IP addresses. When a packet comes in, it will be rewritten in order to forward it to a host that is not the IP destination. A router will keep track of this translation, and when the host sends a reply, it will translate back the other way. PAT translates ports, as the name implies, and likewise, NAT translates addresses. Sometimes PAT is also called Overloaded NAT

What is the name of the text file used on a local machine to perform host name-to-ip address resolution?
The text file used on a local machine for hostname-to-IP address resolution is called the "hosts" file. It typically resides in the directory /etc/ on Unix-based systems (like Linux and macOS) and in C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\ on Windows systems. This file allows users to manually map hostnames to IP addresses, bypassing DNS queries for local resolution.
