Summary
The documentation is heavily oriented toward Windows environments, with all examples, tools, and instructions referencing Windows-specific utilities (Active Directory Domains and Trusts, DNS Manager, icacls, setspn, net use, PowerShell). There are no Linux equivalents or cross-platform instructions provided, and all procedural steps assume Windows domain-joined machines and administrative consoles. Linux scenarios, tools, or commands are not mentioned or supported, resulting in a clear Windows bias.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent instructions for Linux environments, such as using Samba for domain joining and Kerberos authentication.
  • Provide examples for mounting Azure Files SMB shares from Linux clients (e.g., using mount.cifs and Kerberos tickets).
  • Include guidance for managing AD trusts and DNS records from Linux or cross-platform tools (e.g., samba-tool, ldap utilities).
  • Document how to configure file-level permissions on Azure Files from Linux (e.g., using setfacl or getfacl where supported, or clarifying limitations).
  • Clarify which steps are Windows-specific and offer alternative workflows or note limitations for Linux/Unix administrators.
  • Reference cross-platform authentication scenarios and explicitly state any Azure Files limitations for non-Windows clients.
