Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows-centric bias by focusing primarily on Windows tools and patterns for Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) site design. Windows terminology and utilities (such as Active Directory Sites and Services, nslookup, and references to Windows Server documentation) are used exclusively, with no equivalent Linux tooling or procedures provided. While Linux clients are mentioned in the context of Kerberos authentication, there are no Linux-specific configuration examples, tools, or troubleshooting steps. The documentation assumes the use of Windows-based management tools and does not address how to perform equivalent tasks from Linux environments.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux-based examples for verifying DNS SRV records (e.g., using dig or host commands) alongside nslookup.
- Include instructions or references for managing AD DS site and subnet assignments using cross-platform tools or via command-line interfaces (such as PowerShell Core on Linux, or relevant LDAP tools).
- Offer guidance for Linux administrators on integrating with AD DS, including troubleshooting connectivity and authentication from Linux clients.
- Reference open-source or cross-platform alternatives for AD DS management where possible, or clarify which steps require Windows-only tools.
- Balance the order of presentation so that Linux and Windows scenarios are treated equally, especially in authentication and connectivity sections.
