Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias in several ways: it relies heavily on PowerShell commands for administrative tasks (such as configuring Kerberos encryption types and registering features), references Windows-specific tools and policies (e.g., Group Policy, registry keys, Set-ADUser), and provides examples and guidance primarily for Windows environments. Linux-specific instructions, tools, or command-line examples are largely absent, especially for tasks like configuring Kerberos or LDAP settings. Windows terminology and features are introduced before their Linux equivalents, and there is little to no parity in showing how Linux administrators would perform equivalent operations.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux-specific command examples for tasks such as configuring Kerberos encryption types, LDAP settings, and AD connections (e.g., using kadmin, ldapmodify, or relevant Linux utilities).
- Include guidance for managing Active Directory connections from Linux environments, such as using Samba, realmd, or sssd for domain join and Kerberos configuration.
- Offer parity in documentation by presenting both Windows and Linux procedures side-by-side, especially for common administrative actions.
- Reference Linux documentation and tools (e.g., MIT Kerberos, OpenLDAP, Samba) where appropriate, and clarify differences in configuration steps.
- Add troubleshooting sections for Linux clients, including Kerberos ticket lifetime, LDAP query timeouts, and encryption settings.
- Avoid assuming the administrator is using Windows or PowerShell by default; mention cross-platform alternatives early in each section.
