I would just like to preface this with, yes, I have looked for many hours for a solution to this before asking. There seem to be many sites that show people to had the same issue, and I keep coming across 1 explanation for the .NET 3.5 installation failure. I am trying to get an Azure VM running in order to use it to store an instance of a Plastic SCM server. I am doing this to work with version control of a video game I am developing with Unity3D.
I found a rather thought out tutorial online of somebody who had already went through this process to get Plastic on an Azure VM.
http://www.turiyaware.com/plastic-scm-and-microsoft-azure-virtual-machine-tutorial/
So I created the VM in accordance with Steps 14 and 15 in that guide. After the VM was setup though, when the guide gets to steps 22-24, that is where I have my issue. There is nothing in the guide that talks about the issues with installing .NET 3.5.
The site below describes how to fix this, but I am completely new to Azure, Virtual Machines and any thing related to DNS.

I have tried to thoroughly scour the internet for a resolution before coming here, but it is now time to ask. What do I need to do to get .NET 3.5 to install on a VM created according to the above tutorial? Thanks for any help.
