missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a subtle Windows bias, particularly in the 'Legacy model' section, where SMB path syntax (\\server\share) and user ID formats (AZURE\username) are presented in a Windows-centric way. There are no explicit Linux or cross-platform examples for mounting or accessing Azure Files, nor is there mention of Linux-specific tools or syntax. The documentation assumes familiarity with Windows conventions and omits guidance for Linux users.
Recommendations:
- Add Linux-specific examples for mounting Azure Files, such as using the 'mount.cifs' command and appropriate credential formats.
- When showing SMB paths, provide both Windows (\\server\share) and Linux (/mnt/point with //server/share) syntax.
- Clarify that the 'userid' and 'host' formats differ between Windows and Linux clients, and provide examples for each.
- Mention Linux tools (e.g., cifs-utils) alongside Windows tools when discussing legacy SMB access.
- Review all authentication and connection examples to ensure they are platform-agnostic or provide parallel Linux instructions where relevant.
