How to connect to Azure Files (preview) share?

I enabled Azure Files preview.

I follow this article: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/windowsazurestorage/archive/2014/05/12/introducing-microsoft-azure-file-service.aspx

I created new storage account called loremipsum. Using powershell, I created new storage share called loremipsum-01. Called New-AzureStorageDirectory command to test create directory. It succeeded.

I went to command prompt and called this command:

net use z: \\loremipsum.file.core.windows.net\loremipsum-01 /u:loremipsum accesskey==

Result: System error 64. Network name is undefined.

How should I connect to this share, so I can use it as mapped folder in explorer?

Solution

If I am not mistaken, you're trying to connect to Azure File Service share from your local computer. Please note that this is not possible today. You can only mount a share from the VM/Web or Worker Role running in the same region. From the blog post link above (Step 4: Use File Share):

Once your share is created, it can be accessed via the SMB or REST protocol from any Azure node (VM/Worker/Web role) hosted in the same region as the storage account hosting the share.
