What do I need to do in order to fix this error message, beyond what is recommended below:

Failed to access xxxx.file.core.windows.net

    Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Q&A forum.

    If the TCP test port 445 fails, it might be due to your on-premise network security blocking outbound port 445. Make sure to open the outbound port instead of inbound port 445.

    nc -v -w 2 <storage-account-name>.file.core.windows.net 445
