Summary
The documentation is heavily biased toward Windows environments, relying exclusively on Windows-specific tools (certtmpl.msc, Internet Explorer, Active Directory Certification Services) and workflows. There are no Linux/macOS equivalents or alternative instructions provided, making it difficult or impossible for non-Windows users to follow the guide.
Recommendations
  • Provide instructions for generating and managing CA certificates using cross-platform tools such as OpenSSL.
  • Include Linux/macOS workflows for certificate requests, exports, and imports (e.g., using OpenSSL, certtool, or web interfaces accessible from non-Windows browsers).
  • Clarify which steps are strictly Windows-only and offer alternatives or workarounds for Linux/macOS environments.
  • Add examples for certificate management using Azure CLI or REST APIs, which are platform-agnostic.
  • Reorder examples so that platform-neutral or Linux/macOS instructions are presented alongside or before Windows-specific steps.
