I'm trying to use docker but I never seem to be able to access the internet from itThe command i'm running is docker run -i -t ubuntu:14.04 /bin/ping google.com

The result is ping: unknown host google.com

I'm running a stock install of 15.04. Any suggestions?

I'm not an expert in Docker, but I believe if you do "docker run -it ubuntu:14.04 /bin/bash" and get into the ubuntu container, then you can ping www.google.com.  Otherwise, if you already have a container running, then you do "docker exec <container-name/id> ping www.google.com".  Or try without the -i -t param as those are for running the container interactively.

and it is work.

Docker misses a handy webinterface. For example the one Synology uses for Docker.

I know, command line is better but starting a machine, seeing an overview and etc is much handier in a webinterface

Hi. I think you made a mistake.

Look in the "Conclusion", in the last sentence. 

...nside a container and then move ypur containers...

You have "ypur"- your.
