Operating System differences

1. Linux
2. Windows
3. /etc/hosts
4. /etc/resolv.conf
5. OSX

---

1. Linux

Documentation is written from a Linux point of view, so there will be no differences.

2. Windows

On Windows you will have to edit different files on the Docker host than on Linux or OSX.

2.1 /etc/hosts

To set custom DNS entries on windows you will have to edit C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc instead.

2.2 /etc/resolv.conf

In order to add a custom DNS resolver in Windows, you will have to use the GUI tools of your network interfaces.

Check out this blog entry for how to adjust it:

3. OSX

OSX behaves the same as Linux and will not have any differences from the documentation.
