Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows environments, with instructions and tooling (certtmpl.msc, Internet Explorer, Active Directory Certification Services) that are exclusive to Windows. No Linux or cross-platform alternatives are provided for certificate creation, management, or export, and all examples and screenshots are Windows-centric. This creates significant friction for Linux/macOS users, who cannot follow the documented steps without access to a Windows Server and related tools.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent instructions for Linux/macOS environments, such as using OpenSSL for certificate creation and export.
- Mention cross-platform certificate authorities (e.g., EJBCA, Dogtag, or OpenSSL-based CA) as alternatives to Active Directory Certification Services.
- Include examples of certificate requests and exports using command-line tools available on Linux/macOS.
- Clarify which steps are Windows-specific and offer guidance for non-Windows users.
- Add screenshots and walkthroughs for Linux/macOS workflows where possible.
