Summary
The documentation provides both Ubuntu (Linux) and Windows instructions for installing CA certificates, but Windows instructions are more detailed, listing multiple methods (PowerShell, certlm GUI, .NET APIs), while Ubuntu is limited to basic CLI commands. Windows tools (Schannel, certlm, Import-Certificate) are mentioned explicitly and explained, whereas Linux TLS libraries are referenced only in passing. In SDK sections, Windows-specific details (Schannel, certificate store requirements) are emphasized, and .NET instructions mention both Linux and Windows but focus on Windows certificate store. There is a slight 'Windows-first' ordering in explanations and more extensive troubleshooting guidance for Windows environments. Some Linux-specific troubleshooting or alternative tools (e.g., update-ca-certificates alternatives, SELinux, systemd specifics) are missing.
Recommendations
  • Expand Linux instructions to include alternative certificate installation methods (e.g., for Red Hat/CentOS, using update-ca-trust, or for Debian, using dpkg-reconfigure ca-certificates).
  • Provide parity in troubleshooting steps for Linux environments, such as checking permissions, SELinux/AppArmor issues, and systemd service restarts.
  • List Linux TLS stack details (OpenSSL, LibreSSL) with the same depth as Schannel for Windows, including configuration file locations and debugging tips.
  • Offer programmatic certificate installation examples for Linux (e.g., using Python, Bash scripts, or C APIs), similar to the .NET example for Windows.
  • Ensure that Linux tools and patterns are mentioned before or alongside Windows equivalents, and avoid Windows-first ordering in explanations.
  • Add explicit instructions for verifying certificate installation on Linux (e.g., using openssl, certtool, or viewing /etc/ssl/certs contents).
