DescriptionSome of the mongod command line options are incompatibile with windows – for instance, --fork, --syslog, --nounixsocket, --unixSocketPrefix, --filePermissions. Notably, fork/syslog explicitly state that they are not compatible with Windows. nounixsocket, unixSocketPrefix, and filePermissions only state that they are only available on Unix systems. Since syslog and fork are Unix paradigms, it might make sense to consolidate on this wording instead of mentioning Windows specifically (though the exact wording might depend on audience – some Windows users might not intuitively understand that it is not a Unix system, especially given WSL enhancements as of late).
