Summary
The documentation page exhibits mild Windows bias by referencing Windows concepts and documentation links before Linux equivalents, especially in the introduction where ACLs are described as similar to Windows NTFS permissions and links point to Windows-specific documentation. Windows terminology and mapping are discussed before Linux/NFS specifics, and Windows user mapping is described in dual-protocol scenarios. However, the technical examples and command usage throughout the page are Linux/NFS-centric, using Linux tools and commands (nfs4_getfacl, nfs4_setfacl, chmod, chown) and focusing on NFSv4.x ACL management from Linux clients.
Recommendations
- Replace or supplement Windows documentation links (e.g., /windows/win32/secauthz/access-control-lists) with links to Linux/NFS ACL documentation, such as man pages for nfs4_acl or relevant Linux kernel documentation.
- When introducing ACL concepts, present Linux/NFS ACLs first, and only mention Windows NTFS permissions as an analogy for users familiar with Windows, rather than as the primary reference.
- Ensure that any cross-platform mapping discussions (e.g., dual-protocol environments) provide equal detail for both Linux and Windows, and clarify which tools and concepts apply to each platform.
- Add explicit references to Linux/NFS documentation and best practices in the 'Next steps' section, such as links to Linux NFS client configuration guides or NFSv4 ACL management tutorials.
- Review terminology to avoid framing NFSv4.x ACLs primarily in terms of Windows concepts; instead, emphasize their native UNIX/Linux context.
