Summary
The documentation is heavily biased toward Windows environments. All examples and instructions use Windows PowerShell, Windows-specific modules (Active Directory PowerShell), and Windows command-line tools (Setspn). There are no Linux or cross-platform alternatives provided for any step, and the prerequisites and troubleshooting sections assume a Windows domain-joined machine. The documentation also refers to Windows patterns and tools before mentioning any alternatives (which are not present), and there is no guidance for Linux clients or administrators.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent instructions and examples for Linux environments, such as using Samba and Kerberos tools for domain joining and authentication.
- Include cross-platform PowerShell (PowerShell Core) or CLI alternatives where possible, and clarify which steps are Windows-only.
- Document how Linux clients can access Azure Files with AD DS authentication, including required configuration and troubleshooting.
- Mention and link to any Azure CLI, REST API, or other platform-agnostic methods for configuring AD DS authentication.
- Add a section on supported scenarios for non-Windows environments, including limitations and workarounds.
