Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias in several ways: troubleshooting steps and examples frequently use PowerShell and Windows-specific tools (e.g., WinRM, WMI, UAC, IIS), with Windows remediation steps and commands often presented before or in more detail than their Linux equivalents. Linux troubleshooting is generally limited to SSH connectivity and basic commands, with little coverage of Linux-specific errors, tools, or advanced remediation. Some sections, such as web apps discovery errors, are exclusively focused on Windows technologies (IIS), and Linux examples are sparse or missing in command walkthroughs.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux-specific troubleshooting steps and examples alongside Windows ones, including common Linux errors and their remediation.
- Include Linux-native commands and tools (e.g., systemctl, journalctl, package managers) in troubleshooting workflows, not just SSH connectivity.
- For sections focused on Windows technologies (e.g., IIS), clarify Linux alternatives (e.g., Apache, Nginx) and document their discovery and error handling.
- Ensure parity in example scripts and commands: where PowerShell is used for Windows, provide equivalent Bash or shell commands for Linux.
- Expand error tables to include Linux-specific issues (e.g., permission errors, missing dependencies, SELinux/AppArmor restrictions) and their solutions.
- Avoid presenting Windows steps first by default; alternate or parallelize instructions for both platforms.
- Document Linux credential management and troubleshooting in equal detail to Windows (e.g., SSH key issues, PAM configuration, sudo permissions).
