Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias by consistently referencing Windows-centric tools, patterns, and best practices before their Linux equivalents. Examples and screenshots predominantly use Windows environments (e.g., DNS Manager, nslookup on Windows, C:\> prompts), and Microsoft/Active Directory DNS is treated as the default or recommended configuration. Linux alternatives (such as BIND, dig) are mentioned only secondarily or in passing, with fewer detailed examples or screenshots. Some instructions and troubleshooting steps are exclusive to Windows, and secure DDNS is stated as supported only with Microsoft Active Directory DNS servers.
Recommendations
- Provide equal, detailed examples for Linux environments, including screenshots and command-line outputs for BIND, dig, and Linux DNS management tools.
- List Linux/BIND alternatives alongside Windows tools, not only as secondary options.
- Clarify which features are exclusive to Windows/Active Directory DNS and offer guidance or workarounds for Linux/BIND users.
- Include troubleshooting steps and best practices for Linux DNS servers (e.g., BIND, Unbound), not just Windows DNS Manager.
- Where possible, avoid recommending Microsoft defaults (such as TTL values) without also providing Linux/BIND context and recommendations.
- Expand secure DDNS documentation to discuss Linux/BIND support, limitations, and configuration where applicable.
- Ensure all command examples (nslookup, dig) are presented for both platforms with equal depth and clarity.
