Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows Server Active Directory as the external identity source, with all examples, instructions, and screenshots referencing Windows tools and workflows. There are no examples or guidance for integrating with Linux-based LDAP servers or using Linux tools. The steps for certificate management, DNS configuration, and identity source setup are all described using Windows-centric tools (MMC, Windows Server AD, Azure portal) and PowerShell-like cmdlets, with no mention of Linux equivalents or cross-platform alternatives.
Recommendations
- Add parallel instructions and examples for integrating with generic (Linux-based) LDAP servers such as OpenLDAP, including how to export certificates and manage users/groups.
- Include Linux command-line examples (e.g., using openssl, ldapsearch, or certtool) for certificate verification and export.
- Provide guidance on configuring DNS and identity sources when the LDAP server is not Windows-based.
- Clarify which steps are specific to Windows Server Active Directory and which are applicable to any LDAP-compliant directory.
- Add screenshots and walkthroughs for Linux environments where relevant.
- Mention and link to documentation for integrating with non-Windows LDAP sources, if supported.
