Summary
The documentation page demonstrates Windows bias by exclusively referencing Windows-centric tools and defaults, such as Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) for updates and time.windows.com for NTP synchronization. There are no examples or mentions of Linux equivalents (e.g., Linux update servers, chrony/ntpd, or Linux-based certificate management), nor are alternative cross-platform approaches provided. The order of presentation also puts Windows solutions first, reinforcing the bias.
Recommendations
  • Include examples for configuring updates from Linux-based update servers or repositories, such as apt or yum mirrors.
  • Mention and provide examples for using public NTP servers (e.g., pool.ntp.org) and Linux NTP daemons (chrony, ntpd) as alternatives to time.windows.com.
  • Add guidance for certificate management using Linux tools (e.g., OpenSSL) and clarify compatibility with Linux-based certificate authorities.
  • Ensure that instructions and screenshots are platform-neutral or provide parallel steps for both Windows and Linux environments.
  • Explicitly state cross-platform compatibility and provide troubleshooting tips for non-Windows environments.
