Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias. All troubleshooting steps, error messages, and examples are given exclusively for Windows environments, using Windows tools (net use, Event Viewer, Local Security Policy, Registry Editor). There are no Linux or macOS equivalents provided for connecting to SMB shares, checking logs, or adjusting authentication settings. The documentation assumes the user is operating from a Windows host, omitting guidance for Linux users who may also interact with Azure Data Box via SMB.
Recommendations
- Add Linux-specific troubleshooting steps for SMB share connection failures, including example commands (e.g., smbclient, mount -t cifs) and typical error messages.
- Include instructions for reviewing SMB authentication and connection logs on Linux (e.g., using journalctl, syslog, or examining /var/log/samba/).
- Provide guidance for adjusting SMB client configuration on Linux, such as modifying /etc/samba/smb.conf or using mount options to set protocol versions and authentication methods.
- Mention macOS where relevant, with examples using Finder or command-line tools.
- Ensure that all procedures and error resolutions are presented for both Windows and Linux/macOS environments, or clearly indicate platform-specific steps.
