I'm about ready to set up a virtual network in the Azure preview. An existing Azure VM running as fileserver is to be made available in the on-premise network. This is a windows AD network.
How simple is it to make the Azure fileserver appear to be a member server in the on-prem network once the virtual network is set up?
Do I need a replica AD DC in Azure?
Do I need to use ADFS and WAAD?
The scenario is going to remain simple. The only VM we plan to run in Azure is the single fileserver instance. No planned expansion to additional worker roles, more VMs, or even services tied together in Azure subnets. Just the one server that users should access in on-prem network.
