Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively referencing SMB paths in Windows UNC format (\\Server\Share), describing username formats typical of Windows domains, and giving instructions such as 'Right-click the folder, select Properties, then Security,' which are specific to Windows Explorer. There are no examples or instructions for Linux or Unix environments, such as how to specify SMB paths, credentials, or manage permissions from a Linux system. Additionally, references to file matching patterns and regular expressions link to .NET documentation, which is more familiar to Windows users.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux-specific examples for SMB path formats (e.g., //server/share) and credential usage.
  • Include instructions for setting permissions and accessing SMB shares from Linux (e.g., using smbclient, mount.cifs, or relevant CLI commands).
  • Provide parity in file matching pattern examples, referencing Linux shell wildcards and POSIX regular expressions.
  • Clarify that the data copy service can be used from both Windows and Linux NAS devices, and highlight any platform-specific considerations.
  • Reference Linux documentation for regular expressions and file system permissions alongside .NET/Windows resources.
