Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows-first bias: it frequently references Windows concepts (AD DS, DACLs, domain joining) and Windows-centric tools (FSLogix, Kerberos as implemented in Windows environments) without providing equivalent Linux examples or guidance. While Linux support is mentioned, there are no Linux-specific instructions, diagrams, or practical examples. The documentation assumes familiarity with Windows patterns and omits details on how Linux clients can be configured for identity-based authentication over SMB.
Recommendations
- Include explicit Linux configuration examples for identity-based authentication over SMB, such as steps for joining Linux clients to AD DS or Microsoft Entra Domain Services, and using Kerberos on Linux.
- Provide Linux-specific diagrams illustrating authentication flows, similar to those provided for Windows environments.
- Reference and link to Linux tools and documentation (e.g., Samba, sssd, krb5.conf) alongside Windows tools.
- Add troubleshooting tips and requirements for Linux clients, including supported distributions and versions.
- Ensure that Linux and MacOS instructions are given equal prominence and detail as Windows instructions throughout the documentation.
