Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Windows terminology, tools, and workflows. Windows-specific concepts (such as Windows ACLs, DACLs, and domain join instructions) are emphasized, while Linux equivalents are either omitted or only briefly mentioned. Troubleshooting and mounting guidance reference Windows resources, and there are no Linux-specific examples or instructions for mounting or managing permissions. Linux is mentioned only in passing as a supported client OS, with no parity in examples or operational guidance.
Recommendations:
- Add explicit Linux examples for mounting Azure file shares using SMB (e.g., using the 'mount' command or cifs-utils).
- Include Linux-specific troubleshooting links and guidance, similar to the Windows troubleshooting reference.
- Describe how file/directory-level permissions can be managed from Linux clients, or clarify any limitations.
- Mention Linux tools and commands alongside Windows tools (e.g., reference both Windows ACLs and POSIX ACLs, if applicable).
- Where domain join is discussed, provide links or instructions for joining Linux machines to AD DS (e.g., using realmd, sssd, or samba).
- Ensure that all steps and diagrams are inclusive of both Windows and Linux environments, or clearly state if certain features are Windows-only.
