Missing Linux Example
Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. SMB (Windows protocol) is described with official support for Windows and macOS, while Linux SMB (Samba) is mentioned as unofficially supported. Windows terminology (NTFS, SID, Active Directory) is used throughout, often before or in preference to Linux equivalents. Examples and references for Windows tools (NTFS ACLs, AD, Windows extended attributes) are provided, but Linux-specific configuration examples (e.g., Samba setup, NFS client configuration, POSIX ACLs) are missing or less detailed. The dual-protocol section emphasizes Active Directory integration and Windows identity management, with less coverage of Linux/UNIX identity management patterns.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux-specific examples for SMB access (e.g., Samba configuration, mounting SMB shares on Linux).
- Include more details on POSIX ACLs and Linux/UNIX file permission management, especially in dual-protocol scenarios.
- Balance references to Windows tools (NTFS, SID, AD) with equivalent Linux/UNIX concepts (POSIX ACLs, LDAP, /etc/passwd, /etc/group).
- Clarify official support status for Linux SMB clients and provide troubleshooting guidance for common Linux scenarios.
- Add step-by-step examples for configuring NFS and SMB access from Linux clients, including relevant commands and configuration files.
- Mention Linux identity management systems (such as sssd, nsswitch.conf, Kerberos, LDAP) alongside Active Directory.
