How to tell Docker client location of Notary Server?

I have a private Docker registry and recently setup a Notary server on a different Linux host. Is it possible to have the registry on one Linux host and the Notary server on another? I can't find anyway of telling the Docker client where to look for the Notary server ... it seems to assume it's on the same server as the registry.

tx!

You have two ways of doing it. The first is to define it in the Notary CLI config file config.json as follows:

{
        "remote_server": {
                "url": "https://notary-server:4443"**,
                "root_ca": "root-ca.crt"
        }
}

The second is to define it as an environment variable:

export DOCKER_CONTENT_TRUST_SERVER=https://notary-server:4443

We assume that notary-server is defined in /etc/hosts next to its ip:

<IP-HOST> notary-server

Saludos.

Try pointing DOCKER_CONTENT_TRUST_SERVER from your docker client to point to the notary server IP address - that should do the trick.

Please let us know either here or on github.com/docker/notary as an issue if you have more questions :)
