Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a mild Windows bias. SMB (Windows protocol) is described with official support for Windows and macOS, while Linux SMB (Samba) is mentioned as unofficially supported. Windows terminology (NTFS, SID, Active Directory) is used extensively and often before Linux equivalents. Examples and references to Windows tools and concepts (NTFS ACLs, SID translation, AD integration) are more detailed, while Linux/NFS examples are limited and lack parity in practical guidance (e.g., no Samba configuration example for Linux). The dual-protocol section emphasizes Active Directory and Windows attributes, with less detail on Linux identity management or integration patterns.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux/Samba configuration examples for SMB access, including authentication and permission management.
- Clarify support status and best practices for Linux SMB clients, including troubleshooting and limitations.
- Balance terminology by introducing Linux/UNIX equivalents alongside Windows concepts (e.g., mention POSIX ACLs and id mapping when discussing NTFS ACLs and SID translation).
- Include practical examples for both Windows and Linux clients when demonstrating protocol usage, such as mounting, authentication, and permission management.
- Expand on Linux identity management integration (e.g., LDAP, Kerberos) in dual-protocol environments, not just Active Directory.
- Ensure that references to tools and commands (e.g., rpcinfo) are paired with Windows and Linux equivalents where appropriate.
