Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by focusing on Windows-centric tools and workflows (such as Active Directory Sites and Services), providing detailed step-by-step instructions and screenshots for Windows GUI tools, and referencing Windows-specific terminology and resources. Linux client authentication is mentioned but not elaborated upon, and there are no Linux-based configuration examples or equivalent tooling references. The documentation assumes familiarity with Windows AD DS administration and omits Linux-native approaches for managing AD DS integration.
Recommendations:
- Include equivalent Linux-based examples for AD DS integration, such as using Samba tools (e.g., samba-tool, net ads) for site and subnet management, or command-line utilities for DNS/SRV record verification.
- Provide step-by-step instructions for configuring and verifying AD DS site topology from a Linux environment, including relevant CLI commands.
- Reference cross-platform tools and approaches (e.g., LDAP utilities like ldapsearch, Kerberos tools like kinit/klist) alongside Windows tools.
- Balance the order of presentation so that Linux and Windows approaches are given equal prominence, rather than focusing on Windows tools first or exclusively.
- Add screenshots or terminal output examples from Linux environments where applicable, especially for tasks like DNS SRV record validation or Kerberos authentication testing.
