Summary
This documentation page exhibits a strong Windows bias. Troubleshooting steps, examples, and tool references are almost exclusively Windows-centric, with frequent use of Windows-specific tools (Event Viewer, MMC, Registry Editor, Certutil, Process Monitor, PowerShell, etc.), and instructions are written for Windows environments. There are no Linux-specific troubleshooting steps, examples, or tool alternatives provided, even though self-hosted IR can be run on Linux (via Docker) in some scenarios. Windows methods are presented first and often exclusively, with no parity for Linux users.
Recommendations
- Add Linux-specific troubleshooting steps and examples for all major scenarios, especially for log collection, certificate management, service management, and connectivity.
- Include equivalent Linux commands (e.g., using journalctl, systemctl, openssl, curl, wget, netstat, telnet, etc.) alongside Windows commands.
- Reference Linux tools (such as syslog, dmesg, systemd, OpenSSL, Wireshark, etc.) where Windows tools like Event Viewer, MMC, or Process Monitor are mentioned.
- Provide guidance for managing IR services and permissions on Linux (e.g., using systemd, file permissions, Docker container logs).
- Ensure all registry-related instructions have Linux environment variable or configuration file equivalents.
- Where PowerShell is used, offer Bash or shell script alternatives for Linux environments.
- Clarify which troubleshooting steps are OS-specific and provide clear sections for both Windows and Linux users.
- Add screenshots or terminal output examples from Linux environments where only Windows screenshots are currently shown.
