> docker version Client version: 0.11.1 Client API version: 1.11 Go version (client): go1.2.1 Git commit (client): fb99f99 Server version: 0.11.1 Server API version: 1.11 Git commit (server): fb99f99 Go version (server): go1.2.1Setup forward network ports. According to the documentation, the boot2docker VM must be powered off for this to work:
> boot2docker stopRun following script (this takes a while):
for i in {49000..49900}; do
VBoxManage modifyvm "boot2docker-vm" --natpf1 "tcp-port$i,tcp,,$i,,$i";
VBoxManage modifyvm "boot2docker-vm" --natpf1 "udp-port$i,udp,,$i,,$i";
done
Starting docker VM again and login using ssh:> boot2docker up > boot2docker sshThen you should see:
