Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by focusing exclusively on Microsoft Active Directory as the LDAP implementation, using Windows-centric terminology and tools (such as ldp.exe), and providing only Windows-based examples and screenshots. There are no examples or instructions for equivalent Linux/OpenLDAP environments, nor are Linux tools or patterns mentioned. The documentation assumes a Windows/AD context for LDAP group management, which may not be applicable to organizations using Linux-based LDAP servers.
Recommendations:
- Include equivalent examples and screenshots for Linux/OpenLDAP environments, such as using ldapsearch or other standard Linux LDAP tools.
- Mention and explain how supplemental groups and GID management work in non-Active Directory LDAP servers.
- Provide instructions or references for modifying group membership and LDAP attributes in Linux/OpenLDAP, not just in Windows/AD.
- Balance the order of presentation so that Linux/OpenLDAP approaches are described alongside or before Windows/AD approaches where possible.
- Reference Linux documentation and tools (e.g., openldap, nslcd, sssd) in addition to Microsoft tools.
- Clarify when a feature or limitation is specific to Active Directory versus generic to LDAP or NFS.
