Docker.io Howto
From Cactus Howto
Basics
A running instance of an image is called container. You can make changes to a container (e.g. delete a file), but these changes will not affect the image. However, you can create a new image from a running container (and all it changes) using docker commit <container-id> <image-name>.
Setup
sample docker running under Ubuntu 14.04.1:
itsecorg@pbuilder:~$ sudo aptitude install docker.io
Set proxy for docker:
itsecorg@pbuilder:~$ grep http_proxy /etc/default/docker.io export http_proxy="http://proxy.int.cactus.de:8080/" sudo service docker.io restart
