Summary
The documentation generally presents Windows/SMB concepts and tools before or with more detail than Linux/NFS equivalents. Windows terminology (NTFS, SID, Active Directory, NTLM) is used extensively and often explained in more depth, while Linux/UNIX tools and patterns (e.g., Samba, POSIX ACLs, LDAP integration) are mentioned but not elaborated or officially supported. There are no Linux command-line examples or configuration snippets, and Linux/UNIX support is sometimes described as unofficial or less robust.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux/UNIX command-line examples (e.g., mounting NFS/SMB shares, configuring idmapd, using Samba) alongside or before Windows examples.
- Expand explanations of Linux/UNIX concepts (e.g., POSIX ACLs, nfs-utils, LDAP integration) to match the depth given to Windows/SMB/NTFS topics.
- Clarify official support status for Linux/UNIX SMB clients and provide troubleshooting guidance for common scenarios.
- Balance terminology by introducing Linux/UNIX equivalents (e.g., POSIX permissions, UIDs/GIDs, nsswitch.conf) when Windows-specific terms are used.
- Include links to relevant Linux/UNIX documentation and best practices, not just Windows/Active Directory resources.
