Summary
The documentation page exhibits a strong Windows bias. Troubleshooting steps, log collection, and configuration instructions almost exclusively reference Windows tools (Event Viewer, MMC, Registry Editor, Windows folders, Windows services, Control Panel, etc.), and provide PowerShell and Command Prompt examples. There is little to no mention of Linux equivalents or guidance for users running self-hosted IR on Linux systems. In several sections, Windows methods are presented as the only or default approach, and Linux troubleshooting is only referenced indirectly (e.g., TTL values in network traces).
Recommendations
- Add explicit troubleshooting instructions for self-hosted IR running on Linux, including log collection, service management, and certificate handling.
- Provide Linux equivalents for all Windows tool references (e.g., Event Viewer → journalctl/syslog, Registry Editor → config files/environment variables, MMC → certtool/openSSL, Control Panel → systemctl/service commands).
- Include bash/shell script examples alongside PowerShell/Command Prompt commands for connectivity checks, file operations, and service management.
- Clarify which steps are Windows-specific and which are applicable to Linux, and reorganize sections to present both platforms equally.
- Reference Linux file paths and service names where appropriate (e.g., /var/log/, systemd services, etc.).
- Add guidance for installing dependencies (e.g., JRE, .NET) on Linux, including package manager commands.
- Ensure screenshots and UI references are supplemented with CLI or text-based alternatives for Linux environments.
