Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias. All troubleshooting steps, command-line examples, and UI screenshots are Windows-specific. Only Windows tools (e.g., net use, Event Viewer, Local Security Policy, Registry Editor) are referenced, with no mention of Linux or macOS equivalents. There are no Linux command examples or instructions for connecting to SMB shares or troubleshooting from non-Windows systems.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent Linux (and optionally macOS) troubleshooting steps for connecting to SMB shares, such as using the smbclient or mount.cifs commands.
  • Provide Linux command-line examples for connecting to SMB shares and handling authentication errors.
  • Include instructions for checking and modifying SMB client settings on Linux (e.g., editing /etc/samba/smb.conf, using smbclient debug output).
  • Mention relevant Linux log files (e.g., /var/log/syslog, /var/log/samba/) for troubleshooting authentication and connection issues.
  • Where group policy or registry changes are discussed, note the equivalent configuration files or settings on Linux, or clarify if not applicable.
  • Add screenshots or terminal output from Linux environments where appropriate.
  • Explicitly state if certain troubleshooting steps are only applicable to Windows, and provide alternatives for other platforms.
