Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: troubleshooting steps and error messages are predominantly focused on SMB and Active Directory scenarios, which are Windows-centric. PowerShell commands are provided for AD configuration, but equivalent Linux/Unix commands or tools are not mentioned. In dual-protocol and NFS sections, while some Linux-specific instructions are present (such as using kinit and systemctl), Windows/AD/SMB issues are discussed first and in greater detail. There is a lack of parity in providing Linux/Unix troubleshooting examples, especially for NFS-only or LDAP-only environments.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux/Unix command-line examples (e.g., using ldapsearch, klist, systemctl, or nfsstat) alongside or before Windows/PowerShell examples.
  • Include troubleshooting steps for common Linux/Unix NFS and LDAP scenarios, such as checking mount options, verifying Kerberos tickets, or inspecting /etc/krb5.conf and /etc/hosts.
  • Balance the order of presentation: do not always list Windows/SMB/AD errors and solutions before Linux/NFS/LDAP ones; consider grouping by protocol or alternating order.
  • Where PowerShell or Windows AD tools are referenced, add equivalent Linux/Unix commands (e.g., samba-tool, kadmin, or openldap utilities) for managing Kerberos and LDAP.
  • Expand on Linux-specific troubleshooting for dual-protocol and NFSv4.1 Kerberos volumes, including more detailed steps for debugging on Linux clients.
