You have a lot of options, but keep in mind that Azure does non provide a native way to admission the machine storage.
You tin:
- Remote Desktop your virtual machine
- Install an FTP service on your VM and so publish the FTP port using a public endpoint then admission the VM via its public Name/IP
- Share a folder, then publish the SMB port using a public endpoint and access the VM via its public Name/IP

Hello,
When you said "publish the FTP port using
a public endpoint then access the VM via its public Proper name/IP"what do you hateful exactly, distressing did not undertand .
I understand to install the FTP role in the VM, only how to configure the admission, can you elaborate steps?
-
Permit me explicate,
By default, you cannot access your virtual machine form Internet. External access is non allowed.
To allow access from the external network, you will need to make a configuration on your Azure VM.
What ?
- You are on the external network
- Your VM take a public IP (your cloud service Public IP or your VM level Public IP)
-You will configure Azure to let the external admission on defined port (we call this Endpoint)
- Y'all will then point your FTP client on the public IP on that port
How?
Look for this article explaining how to configure an Endpoint
https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/virtual-machines-set-upwardly-endpoints/
Don't hesitate to ask for explanation

Hi Solatys,
Thanks for posting hither.
Try login to your VM from local machine (run ->MSTSC). And so enter the vmname.cloudapp.net:publicportnumber
Then click on more than push, local resoursces tab and y'all get to see all the difficult drives and printer details. Select the drive where you have the data and once you logon to your VM. You can copy the desired folder copied onto Azure VM.
Hope this helps you.

@Girish, that works nicely and simpler . Many thanks.
By the way, is there a kind of similar easy style for my external user to admission the Report Server hosted on this VM through at that place ain Local internet explorer ?
For instance in my VM machine I have my report server which is attainable from the VM to http://SolatysReport/reports.
Is in that location a way to configure my VM so that my suer will merely enter the VM public ip adress and admission to report server files ?
My goal is that instead of providing an RDP shorcut is to provide to my user an url shortcut pointing directly to my VM report server. Then user will enter authentication and access data

Hello Solatys,
Create Inbound & Outbound rules in Virtual Machine Firewall for port numbers eighty and 443.
Create end points for the same port numbers in azure management portal.
You shall access the report server via the public DNS Name - this is sort of http://mysamplevm.cloudapp.net/ReportServer/PageHope this helps you.

Hullo, I manage to create the end poitn and access the reports through local browser.
Simply I discover that it takes a really long time to ping the serer the first time.Is thre a mode to speed up this ?

This could be due to the IIS configuration caching, is information technology relatively fast on the local machine when you launch the web page? Try hit the server directly via the external IP accost(VIP) institute on the VMs dashboard, this will narrow down whether this is a DNS result or routing latency issue. Last affair to bank check, does hitting the master IIS splash page launch quickly but the reports page launch more slowly? Just some dissimilar angles to attempt out.

Note that PING/ICMP requests from the public internet will non get a response merely TELNET on the appropriate ports volition. You need to create a firewall rule on your Azure VM to let the traffic from the public endpoint to the port where Reporting Services is listening on.
