Summary
The documentation provides detailed instructions and examples exclusively for Windows Server environments, specifically using Windows PowerShell and the Windows DNS Server role. There are no equivalent instructions or examples for configuring DNS forwarding on Linux-based DNS servers (such as BIND), nor are Linux command-line examples (e.g., dig) provided. Windows tools and patterns are mentioned first and exclusively, which may create friction for Linux or cross-platform administrators.
Recommendations
  • Add a section with step-by-step instructions for configuring conditional forwarding on common Linux DNS servers (e.g., BIND/named), including example configuration file snippets.
  • Include Linux/macOS command-line examples using 'dig' or 'host' alongside 'nslookup', and clarify that 'nslookup' is available cross-platform but may differ in usage.
  • Explicitly state that the procedure applies to both Windows and Linux DNS servers, and provide links to relevant Linux DNS server documentation.
  • Where PowerShell commands are shown, provide equivalent shell commands or configuration file edits for Linux.
  • Consider reordering or parallelizing examples so that Linux and Windows instructions are presented together, rather than Windows-first or Windows-only.
