Summary:
The documentation page shows a mild Windows bias. In the section on finding the sAMAccountName, Windows AD tools are mentioned before Linux/SAMBA commands, and the Windows approach is described as 'standard'. There is no mention of Linux equivalents for browsing AD except for a brief reference to SAMBA commands, which are less detailed. Elsewhere, there are no explicit PowerShell or Windows command-line examples, but the overall troubleshooting flow assumes familiarity with Windows-centric tools and patterns, with Linux/SSH/kinit only appearing in later sections.
Recommendations:
- Present Linux and Windows methods for directory browsing and user attribute discovery side-by-side, or give equal prominence to both.
- Provide explicit Linux command examples (e.g., using ldapsearch, getent, or samba-tool) for querying user attributes in addition to Windows AD tools.
- Avoid describing Windows tools as 'standard' without mentioning that equivalent Linux tools exist.
- Where SSH/kinit is mentioned, clarify that these are standard on Linux and provide Windows equivalents (e.g., using MIT Kerberos for Windows or WSL).
- Ensure that all troubleshooting steps and examples are cross-platform, or clearly indicate when a step is OS-specific.
