I have no http proxy. I have restarted the docker daemon.
my dns setting is set to 8.8.8.8 and I can connect to any other sites on the net just fine.

I can telnet to port 443 of the registry and I get no data.

I understand that's an SSL port and doing a standard HTTP get isn't going to work, but I would expect some data.
