Description

From the user

It is technically possible that we are going to manage in the same
installation groups and netgroups, like in a standard linux machine.
On Linux machine the connection is done through nsswitch configuration and
on redhat normally through sssd.

The current configuration of the netgroups require to lookup LDAP groups
OR netgroups.
In order to lookup both items, we need to have 2 ldap connections
configured.

This is a limitation.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

How reproducible:

100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. try to create LDAP authsource
2. it's required to choose between netgroups or posix groups via checkbox
3.

Actual results:

no way to combine both in single auth source

Expected results:

it would be good to have two separate fields for specifying DN, we should combine results so that:

How would you prefer to combine
external usergroups for such user? If let's say user belongs to group a and
netgroup b,c should the result be a,b,c?
