Summary:
The documentation exclusively describes Windows-based tools and workflows (Windows Explorer, Microsoft Management Console) for managing SMB share ACLs in Azure NetApp Files. There are no examples or instructions for performing these tasks from Linux or cross-platform environments, nor are any Linux tools or command-line alternatives mentioned. The documentation assumes the user is operating from a Windows environment.
Recommendations:
- Add instructions or examples for viewing and managing SMB share ACLs using Linux tools such as smbclient, smbcacls, or other Samba utilities.
- Clarify whether share-level ACL management is possible from non-Windows platforms, and if not, explicitly state this limitation.
- If PowerShell or MMC are required, provide alternative guidance or workarounds for Linux or macOS users (e.g., using a Windows VM, Azure Cloud Shell, or REST APIs if available).
- Include a section comparing Windows and Linux management options for SMB ACLs, highlighting any feature gaps.
- Where screenshots are used, consider including command-line examples or outputs from cross-platform tools.
