Summary
The documentation demonstrates Windows bias by referencing Windows-specific tools (ktpass.exe), providing a PowerShell script, and detailing password reset steps using Windows GUI tools (Server Manager, Active Directory Users and Computers) without mentioning Linux alternatives. The Linux bash script is mentioned, but Windows tools and workflows are described first and in more detail, while Linux domain controller management is omitted.
Recommendations
- Add instructions for resetting the Active Directory user password using Linux tools (e.g., samba-tool, ldapmodify) for environments where the domain controller is Samba-based or managed from Linux.
- Provide parity in example scripts and workflows, ensuring bash/Linux instructions are as detailed as PowerShell/Windows ones.
- Mention Linux equivalents for Active Directory management, such as using RSAT on Linux, or direct LDAP commands.
- Reorder sections to present Linux and Windows options equally, or clarify which environments each applies to.
- Include troubleshooting steps for Linux-based domain controllers and clarify any differences in keytab rotation processes.
