From my local machine, I am trying to connect fdb which is hosted in AWS machine as a docker container.

Dockerfile :

```auto
FROM ubuntu:18.04
WORKDIR /home/ubuntu/
RUN apt update
RUN apt-get install vim -y
ADD https://www.foundationdb.org/downloads/6.1.12/ubuntu/installers/foundationdb-clients_6.1.12-1_amd64.deb .
ADD https://www.foundationdb.org/downloads/6.1.12/ubuntu/installers/foundationdb-server_6.1.12-1_amd64.deb .
RUN dpkg -i foundationdb-clients_6.1.12-1_amd64.deb foundationdb-server_6.1.12-1_amd64.deb
RUN rm -r /var/lib/foundationdb/data/*

```

I have exposed port 4500 in docker, from local machine i was able to reach 4500 but unable to reach cluster-controller.

Error as below

```auto
Using cluster file `fdb.cluster'.

```

But i was able to reach it from host machine. (i,e aws machine)

Any idea on how to fix?

I have referred these links , but still i’m stuck

This looks like an issue with AWS private/public IP confusion. There seems to be some relevant discussion here - [Setting up remote access to FDB Server hosted on EC2, with AWS Private IP Addresses](https://forums.foundationdb.org/t/setting-up-remote-access-to-fdb-server-hosted-on-ec2-with-aws-private-ip-addresses/1465)
