"Error during connect" with Unix socket in Docker example

[ph-l]

I'm trying out the Docker example with lima 0.8.0 and getting an error "no such host" connecting to the unix socket when using Docker CLI. Connecting over SSH works fine though, am I doing something wrong?

I suspect you have set DOCKER_TLS_VERIFY in your environment. Unsetting it should fix your problem.

That solved it, thanks a lot!
