How to reconnect to docker instance - azure

I'll start from the beginning.
I've created an Ubuntu machine with docker installed on Azure.
On the top I created two docker containers, I used to connect from an old computer using docker-machine for management tasks.
I've changed my computer, so I need to connect from the new one.
I've added my azure subscription
However when I try the docker-machine cdmdlet to the existing container I have the following error message:
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> docker-machine ssh vm name
Host does not exist: "vm name".
The machine is running but I'll guess I'll have to recreate the certificates used for the connection.
I've tried the following with no luck:
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> docker-machine regenerate-certs vm name
Regenerate TLS machine certs?  Warning: this is irreversible. (y/n): y
Regenerating TLS certificates
Host does not exist: "vm name"
I no longer have access to the old machine.
Has anyone been into the same situation?
Any thoughts are welcome.

You'll have to recreate the machine using the generic driver:
docker-machine create \
--driver generic \
--generic-ip-address=203.0.113.81 \
--generic-ssh-key ~/.ssh/id_rsa \
vm
Replace the information accordingly.
Note that this does NOT remove any data on the target instance, rather it just configures docker to talk to machine if it isn't already, and also generates new certificates so it can communicate with the instance.

How to pull a docker image from Azure Registry in a Azure Ubuntu virtual machine

I have created an Azure Registry where I deploy some docker container from the CD\CI in Azure DevOps.
Following the Microsoft documentation, I have created a service principal. So, I have username and password to use to pull images from the Azure Container Registry. I tried to pull the images locally and it is working. To connect to the Container registry I use this command:
docker login myazureregistry.azurecr.io --username --password
Now, I want to create a virtual machine in Azure to publicly access to the application in the container.
I created an Ubuntu virtual machine and installed Docker. I run the same command as before on the Ubuntu machine but I got an error:
Got permission denied while trying to connect to the Docker daemon socket at unix:///var/run/docker.sock: Post http://%2Fvar%2Frun%2Fdocker.sock/v1.39/auth: dial unix /var/run/docker.sock: connect: permission denied
What is the problem? How have I to configure Ubuntu to connect to the Azure Container?
Maybe you don't have permissions for use docker.
Add your user to docker group for use docker command without sudo
sudo groupadd docker
sudo usermod -aG docker $USER
And after this run your login command. (If you use virtual machine, it may be necessary to restart the virtual machine for changes to take effect)

Connecting to Azure Container Services from Windows 8.1 Docker

I've been following this tutorial to set up an Azure container service. I can successfully connect to the master load balancer via putty. However, I'm having trouble connecting to the Azure container via docker.
~ docker -H 192.168.33.400:2375 ps -a
error during connect: Get https://192.168.33.400:2375/v1.30/containers/json?all=1: dial tcp 192.168.33.400:2375: connectex: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.
I've also tried
~ docker -H 127.0.0.1:2375 ps -a
This causes the docker terminal to hang forever.
192.168.33.400 is my docker machine ip.
My guess is I haven't setup the tunneling correctly and this has something to do with how docker runs on Windows 8.1 (via VM).
I've created an environment variable called DOCKER_HOST with a value of 2375. I've also tried changing the value to 192.168.33.400:2375.
I've tried the following tunnels in putty,
1. L2375 192.168.33.400:2375
2. L2375 127.0.0.1:2375
3. L22375 192.168.33.400:2375
4. L22375 127.0.0.1:2375 (as shown in the video)
Does anyone have any ideas/suggestions?
Here are some screenshots of the commands I ran:
We can follow this steps to setup tunnel:
1.Add Azure container service FQDN to Putty:
2.Add private key(PPK) to Putty:
3.Add tunnel information to Putty:
Then we can use cmd to test it:

Unable to connect with Azure Container Services - Kubernetes

I am working on setting up environment for deploying microservices.
I have gotten as far as building my code and deploying to a registry but having problem running it in Azure Container Services.
I am following this guide to connect to ACS: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/container-service/container-service-connect
But i fail on the step: Download Cluster Credentials
Using the given command
az acs kubernetes get-credentials --resource-group=<cluster-resource-group> --name=<cluster-name>
Ofc changing the reseource group and clustername to the correct names from my portal. I get an error:
[WinError 10049] The requested address is not valid in its context
(if i change resource group or clustername to something else I get other errors so seems it can find those at least)
When i try to search for the error it seems to be some IP adress problem but can't figure out what to do. Tried running same command from other network (from home) to make sure work firewall is not blocking something.. but I get the same error
Any help appriciated!
This command copy the cluster credentials to your machine. Background processes are ssh to your cluster VM and copy the credentials.
So, you should ensure you could ssh to the master VM manual. If you could not ssh to master VM manual, az command also could not do it. You could get your master-dns-name on Azure Portal.
ssh -i id_rsa <user>#<master-dns-name>
Notes: If az command does not work and you could ssh to master VM, you could download credentials to your machine. They are same. You could check your link about this.
You also need check your azure cli version. You could use the following commands
az --version
My version is 2.02. It works for me.

docker build fails on a cloud VM

I have an Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial) running inside an Azure VM. I have followed the instructions to install Docker and all seems fine and dandy.
One of the things that I need to do when I trigger docker run is to pass --net=host, which allows me to run apt-get update and other internet-dependent commands within the container.
The problem comes in when I try to trigger docker build based on an existing Ubuntu image. It fails:
The problem here is that there is no way to pass --net=host to the build command. I see that there are issues open on the Docker GitHub (#20987, #10324) but no clear resolution.
There is an existing answer on Stack Overflow that covers the scenario I want, but that doesn't work within a cloud VM.
Any thoughts on what might be happening?
UPDATE 1:
Here is the docker version output:

UPDATE 2:
Here is the output from docker network ls:
NETWORK ID NAME DRIVER SCOPE

Another approach would be to try letting docker-machine provision the VM for you and see if that works. There is a provider for Azure, so you should be able to set your subscription id on a local Docker client (Windows or Linux) and follow the instructions to get a new VM provisioned with Docker and it will also setup your local environment variables to communicate with the Docker VM instance remotely. After it is setup running docker ps or docker run locally would run the commands as if you were running them on the VM. Example:
#Name at end should be all lower case or it will fail.
docker-machine create --driver azure --azure-subscription-id <omitted> --azure-image canonical:ubuntuserver:16.04.0-LTS:16.04.201608150 --azure-size Standard_A0 azureubuntu

To see how to connect your Docker Client to the Docker Engine running on this virtual machine, run: docker-machine env azureubuntu
#Set environment using PowerShell (or login to the new VM) and see containers on remote host
docker-machine env azureubuntu | Invoke-Expression
docker info
docker network inspect bridge
#Build a local docker project using the remote VM
docker build MyProject
docker images
#To clean up the Azure resources for a machine (you can create multiple, also check docker-machine resource group in Azure portal)
docker-machine rm azureubuntu
Best I can tell that is working fine. I was able to build a debian:wheezy DockerFile that uses apt-get on the Azure VM without any issues. This should allow the containers to run using the default bridged network as well instead of the host network.
According to I can't get Docker containers to access the internet? using sudo systemctl restart docker might help, or enable net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1 or disable the firewall.
Also you may need to update the dns servers in /etc/resolv.conf on the VM

Could not connect to VM created with Azure command line tools

I am trying to use the Azure Command Line Tools (http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/manage/linux/how-to-guides/command-line-tools/) to create an Ubuntu 12.04 VM.
I am issuing the following commands:
azure vm create xxxxxxxxxx.cloudapp.net b39f27a8b8c64d52b05eac6a62ebad85__Ubuntu-12_04_1-LTS-amd64-server-20121218-en-us-30GB azureuser mypassword --location "West Europe"
azure vm endpoint create xxxxxxxxxx 22 22
azure vm start xxxxxxxxxx
This seems to create and start the VM successfully.
I try to connect via SSH to the VM using the following command (on Mac OS X)
ssh azureuser#xxxxxxxxxx.cloudapp.net
However, when I try to SSH into the VM, it seems that password authentication is disabled on the VM as I am getting the following error:
Permission denied (publickey).
I would like to add that connecting via SSH to an Ubuntu VM created trough the Azure Management portal works absolutely fine. This issue only appears when the VM was created through the Azure command line tools.
Has anybody encountered a similar issue and knows how to solve it?
You need to use the --ssh switch on your azure vm create command to enable ssh. Adding the endpoint has no effect.
According to the Windows Azure command-line tool for Mac and Linux documentation you can only add ssh connectivity via the azure cli when the virtual machine is created.
