I'm dealing with an issue where users are having trouble accessing an SMB file share from a virtual machine I set up in Azure. While my account and a handful of others can connect without issues, most users get a login prompt and receive access denied errors even after entering their credentials. I've checked that all users have the Storage File Data SMB Share Contributor role, and to me, it doesn't seem to be a network problem since I can connect fine. Any thoughts on what might be going wrong?

What authentication method are you using? I had trouble with Azure Kerberos, which might be similar to what you're experiencing.
Actually, I had a similar issue, and a simple restart of the VM fixed it for me. It's strange, but sometimes that's all it takes!
Have you checked the NTFS permissions on the file share? Sometimes that can block access for certain users even if they've been granted the appropriate Azure roles.
Any chance there are any IP or network restrictions on your Storage Account? That can prevent access for some users as well.
