Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias. Most command-line examples use PowerShell, and references to Windows tools and policies (e.g., Group Policy, registry keys) are prevalent. Windows terminology and features are introduced before or instead of Linux equivalents, and there are no concrete Linux-specific examples or instructions for managing Active Directory connections, Kerberos, or LDAP from Linux environments. The documentation assumes familiarity with Windows Server and Active Directory concepts, with limited guidance for Linux administrators.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Linux command-line examples (e.g., using 'ldapsearch', 'kinit', 'adcli', or 'realm' for Kerberos and LDAP operations).
- Include instructions for configuring Kerberos encryption types and LDAP settings on Linux clients, not just Windows (e.g., editing '/etc/krb5.conf', using 'authconfig', etc.).
- Reference Linux tools and configuration files (such as '/etc/krb5.conf', '/etc/ldap.conf', and 'sssd') alongside Windows Group Policy and registry settings.
- Add troubleshooting steps and best practices for Linux environments, including how to handle Kerberos ticket lifetimes and LDAP query timeouts on Linux clients.
- Clarify which features and settings are relevant or different for Linux-based SMB/NFS clients, especially in mixed environments.
- Balance examples and terminology so that both Windows and Linux administrators can follow the documentation without needing to cross-reference external Linux guides.
