Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively providing instructions and examples for managing SMB permissions and shares using Windows tools (e.g., MMC, Windows SMB client). There are no Linux-based examples or guidance for accessing or managing SMB volumes from Linux clients, despite SMB being a cross-platform protocol. Windows terminology and workflows are prioritized, and Linux alternatives are not mentioned.
Recommendations:
- Include examples for accessing and mounting SMB volumes from Linux clients (e.g., using the 'mount -t cifs' command).
- Provide instructions for managing SMB permissions from Linux, such as using 'smbclient', 'smbcacls', or 'setfacl' where appropriate.
- Mention and demonstrate how to view or modify SMB share properties from Linux or cross-platform tools, not just Windows MMC.
- Balance screenshots and walkthroughs to show both Windows and Linux client perspectives.
- Clarify that SMB volumes can be accessed from non-Windows systems and link to relevant Linux documentation.
