Summary
The documentation is heavily biased toward Windows environments. All configuration steps, examples, and tools (icacls, Windows File Explorer, PowerShell modules, net use) are Windows-specific. There are no Linux/macOS examples or guidance for mounting or managing ACLs, and the documentation assumes the use of Windows ACLs (NTFS), which are not natively supported on Linux. Linux is only mentioned in a final link, with no actionable steps or parity in the main content.
Recommendations
- Add explicit guidance for Linux/macOS users, including whether and how they can manage or view ACLs on Azure Files.
- If NTFS ACL management is not supported from Linux/macOS, clearly state this limitation early in the documentation.
- Provide alternative workflows or tools (if any) for Linux/macOS environments, or link to relevant documentation.
- Include Linux/macOS mounting instructions and clarify what level of access control is possible from those platforms.
- Consider restructuring the document so that platform-specific instructions are clearly separated and Linux/macOS parity (or lack thereof) is transparent.
