Proxy configuration for docker daemon tcp protocol

[ClementB-OBS]

Configuration :

• docker-machine.exe version 0.13.0, build 9ba6da9
• docker-client 18.01.0-ce
• OS Windows 7 under Corporate Proxy (HTTP)

I tried to install and use a docker machine on OpenStack Provider.
No problem for machine creation and installation (I have set HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY env variables for HTTP request, and configure ssh), but at the end :

Error creating machine: Error checking the host: Error checking and/or regenerating the certs: There was an error validating certificates for host "84.39.36.195:2376": dial tcp 84.39.36.195:2376: i/o timeout

Same issue here :

$ docker-machine ls
NAME      ACTIVE   DRIVER       STATE     URL                         SWARM   DOCKER        ERRORS
default   *        virtualbox   Running   tcp://192.168.99.100:2376           v18.02.0-ce
testing            openstack    Timeout

I haven't found the proxy configuration for the docker client, only for docker engine.

No problem for ssh :

$ docker-machine ssh testing

Hi @ClementB-OBS,

we have a very similar problem with amazonec2 in our corporate network. I'm pretty sure that this is a bug of the dockerclient used by docker-machine. It simply ignores the proxy parameters that are set within the environment.

I've spent some time on writing a fix, samalba/dockerclient#245 should solve the issue.

Best,
Chris
