I tried setting hosts array in the Docker Engine configuration (json) file inside the Docker Desktop interface. The VM did start successfully for 127.0.0.1.

Tho Docker Desktop UI is stuck spinning after "Apply & Restart" button was pressed when set to a tailscale VPN network adapter IP address.

There isn't many example of this and if someone can confirm they got it to work it would be great.

  • 127.0.0.1 is inaccessible to any machine other than the host. – Ramhound Apr 13 '23 at 05:31
  • 127.0.0.1 is accessible to any machine, but its a loopback address so it's just another way to refer to itself https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reserved_IP_addresses & https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Localhost – Gantendo Apr 13 '23 at 05:52

    It seems to me that the OP is aware of the 127.0.0.1 limitation, since it's stated that the VM is working fine with 127.0.01, but when set to the IP address they *need*, it isn't accessible. – NotTheDr01ds Apr 13 '23 at 11:34
  • When you say it *"won't boot"* with that IP, is there any error message? – NotTheDr01ds Apr 13 '23 at 11:36
  • No errors texts that I am aware of.. it's just stuck spinning after Docker Desktop's "Apply & Restart" – Tiger Kaovilai Apr 14 '23 at 17:08
