I have VMware Photon OS running in VMware Player. This will be used as the host OS to run Docker containers.
However, since I'm behind a ZScaler, I'm having issues running commands that access external resources. E.g. docker pull python
gives me the following output (I added some line breaks to make it more readable):
error pulling image configuration:

I have tries to extract the CA root certificates (in PEM
format) for ZScaler from my Windows workstation, and have appended them to /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt
. But even after restarting Docker, this didn't solve the issue.
I've read through numerous posts, most referencing the command update-ca-trust
which does not exist on my system (even though the ca-certificates
package is installed).
I have no idea how to go forward. AFAIK, there are two options. Either:
The latter works by the way, e.g. executing curl
with the -k
option allows me to access any https resource.
The problem is zscaler is acting as MAN-IN-THE-MIDDLE doing the ssl inspecting in your organization (see https://support.zscaler.com/hc/en-us/articles/205059995-How-does-Zscaler-protect-SSL-traffic-).
Since you've tried put the certificate in docker, I guess you've been already familiar with steps described in https://stackoverflow.com/a/36454369/1443505. The answer in this is almost correct for the zscaler scenario. One thing need to note is that because zscaler intercepts the CA tree. We need add all the certificates on the chains.
For now, the certificate chains behind zscaler looks as following
We need to export them all one by one and follow the instructions in https://stackoverflow.com/a/36454369/1443505 for each of them.
