Problem with access users AD local to Azure Files

Hello, Azure files is joined to my domain. I migrated my share folder to Azure Files.
I mounted this folder in a VM as a drive and allowed a group to connect to it.

 

 

But using a user from this Active Directory group, it doesn't work

Help please?

  • Hi if the storage account is joined to the dmain and the users of the same domain has the right access you should verify your firewall rules.

    By right access i mean one of the access below : 

    • Firstly, Storage File Data SMB Share Reader that allows read access in Azure Storage file shares over SMB.
    • Secondly, Storage File Data SMB Share Contributor that allows read, write, and delete access in Azure Storage file shares over SMB.
    • Lastly, Storage File Data SMB Share Elevated Contributor that allows read, write, delete and modify NTFS permissions in Azure Storage file shares over SMB.

    Then verify : 

    net use <desired-drive-letter>: \\<storage-account-name>.file.core.windows.net\<share-name>
