Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias. Most command-line instructions, tooling references, and examples are Windows-centric, including frequent use of PowerShell, Windows command prompts, Windows file paths, and Windows-specific tools (e.g., DISM, reg.exe, net.exe). There are no Linux-specific instructions or examples, even though the configuration server can be used for protecting both Windows and Linux physical servers. Linux equivalents for tasks such as certificate renewal, credential management, and server registration are missing.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-specific instructions and examples for all management tasks, including certificate renewal, credential management, and server registration.
  • Include Linux shell (bash) command equivalents alongside PowerShell/Windows command prompt examples.
  • Reference Linux tools and file paths where appropriate (e.g., /var, /etc) in addition to Windows paths.
  • Clarify which steps are Windows-only and which are applicable to Linux, and provide parity in guidance for both platforms.
  • If certain tools (e.g., CSPSConfigtool.exe, genpassphrase.exe) are Windows-only, document Linux alternatives or explicitly state limitations.
  • Add examples for managing the configuration server from Linux environments, especially for physical Linux servers.
