Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by providing only Windows-based instructions and tooling for managing SMB volumes, such as using the Windows Security tab, Microsoft Management Console (MMC), and referencing Windows-specific commands and interfaces. There are no equivalent Linux examples or instructions for managing SMB permissions or accessing SMB shares from Linux clients. The documentation assumes the administrator is using Windows tools and does not mention or demonstrate how to perform similar tasks on Linux, despite SMB being accessible from Linux systems.
Recommendations:
- Add examples and instructions for managing SMB share and file permissions from Linux clients, such as using 'smbclient', 'mount.cifs', or 'setfacl'.
- Include Linux command-line examples for mounting SMB shares and modifying permissions, alongside the Windows MMC and GUI instructions.
- Provide parity in screenshots and walkthroughs for both Windows and Linux environments where applicable.
- Explicitly mention that SMB volumes can be accessed and managed from Linux, and link to relevant documentation or guides.
- Ensure that references to tools and workflows do not assume a Windows-only environment, and introduce Linux alternatives where possible.
