Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows environments. All certificate management steps rely on Windows-specific tools (certtmpl.msc, Internet Explorer, Internet Options, Windows Certificate Export Wizard), and prerequisites assume Active Directory and AD CS. There are no examples or guidance for performing equivalent tasks on Linux, nor mention of Linux-compatible certificate authorities or tools. The workflow is not cross-platform and excludes users who do not have access to Windows infrastructure.
Recommendations
- Add Linux-based certificate authority options (e.g., OpenSSL, EJBCA, Dogtag) and instructions for generating subordinate CA certificates.
- Provide examples for certificate request, creation, and export using Linux command-line tools (e.g., openssl, certtool).
- Include guidance for exporting certificates to .pfx format on Linux.
- Clarify that the process can be performed on non-Windows platforms and provide parity in steps and screenshots.
- Mention alternatives to Active Directory and AD CS for organizations using Linux or hybrid environments.
