Hi Serge Thanks very much for your email. Going through the steps above showed me I had a firewall problem. Dropping the firewall allowed the container to hit the internet. Apologies for this beginner problem. I'd be grateful to know if anyone has some firewall (iptables) advice for allowing traffic to the container? I expect to run another firewall on the container itself.
