Recently just set up a docker to work under windows behind a corporate firewall
Prerequisite:
- Enable VT-X in BIOS
- Setup Server environment variable in the host PC
HTTP_PROXY=http://<proxy>:<port>
HTTPS_PROXY=http://<proxy>:<port>
NO_PROXY=192.168.99.100
1. Download docker toolbox for windows and install it
2. Start Docker quick terminal
I removed the default image and recreate one.
docker-machine stop default
docker-machine rm default
3. Create a image named dev
docker-machine create --driver virtualbox dev
4. Set up the start environment variable
docker-machine env dev
eval $("C:\program files\docker toolbox\docker-machine.exe" env dev)
docker ps
5.Remote SSH to the image and set up proxy in it
docker-machine ssh dev
sudo -s
echo "export HTTP_PROXY=http://<proxy>:<port>" >> /var/lib/boot2docker/profile
echo "export HTTPS_PROXY=http://<proxy>:<port>" >> /var/lib/boot2docker/profile
cat /var/lib/boot2docker/profile
exit
6. Restart the image
docker-machine restart dev
7. Run hello-world to test
docker run hello-world
-----
There are also a few useful command to use
docker ps -a
docker run -p 3000:3000 -v $(pwd):/var/www -w /var/www node npm start

Updated, just found a blog talking about this as well.
