Unable to do Azure File Sync -Server Registration. I checked that port 443 is open for outbound connections. Received below error when clicking on "Register". Please assist here. "The server registration can fail for several reasons.
. Proxy server requirements and firewalls with outbound rules can impact your ability to register the server. It is also possible that registration succeeds but sync cannot connect to all necessary endpoint URLs. Learn how to fix this at: https://aka.ms/AFS/ProxyAndFirewall
Private endpoint configurations on Azure storage accounts impact network configuration for sync as well. If you have private endpoint configurations on your storage account, learn how to change Azure File Sync configurations to match: https://aka.ms/AFS/PrivateEndpoint"

What ended up working was registering the storage sync service using powershell. No clue why this worked but GUI did not.

2024-03-01T19:40:17.5866667+00:00 @Omkar Urankar The solution is to either use an older version of the Azure File Sync agent, v16.0, or use the powershell script posted above instead.
