Windows 10: Access of Azure file share from PC on prem

Hello team,I have created a file share on Azure under a storage account. I have created a VPN site to site between my site and Azure to access the file share. In Azure I have created a private endpoint, and from a PC on site joined to Azure AD, I can create the map drive to azure but I cannot access it with the same user I joined the PC on Azure AD. I have enabled Azure authentication for file share. Can anyone help with this please ?Thanks

Azure AD Banned Password List without On-Prem Agent

Hi All,

I am considering enabling banned password list for our Azure AD in our hybrid environment and want to ask, how doing that will affect our environment if we do not install the on-prem DC agent, as our on-prem does not meet minimum requirements.

Which password resets and changes will be validated through banned password list and which will not?

Will 'noncompliant' passwords synced from on-prem to Azure AD be causing issues?

TIA,

W

The correct way to mount an Azure Windows Share

Here is my goal:

• I'd like to have an Azure Windows Share folder that I can mount both in my Windows Azure VM and on my Local Computer.
• I'd like to be able to read and write to files in this share from both the Azure VM and my Local Computer
• I am not necessarily trying to use a VPN

Here is my starting point:

• I have a Windows Azure account
• I have used the PowerShell scripts to create a Windows Azure VM (With Windows Server 2016 DataCenter)
• I have logged into my Azure VM
• I have created a Storage Account (with an Account Key) in my Azure Portal
• I have attempted to follow the instructions in this article: Mount SMB Azure file share on Windows

Here is my problem:

• I am confused on when it says to open Port 445. Port 445 appears to be open on the VM, but the share should be separate from the VM, correct? Where then am I supposed to open port 445? Is there a different machine that I should be accessing via PowerShell
  commands?

Also, is there another way to accomplish my goal (see "Here is my goal" section above") given where I am starting from?
