docker server 容器连接sql_从Docker容器连接到SQL Server数据库

I have docker for windows installed on my machine. There is a console application targeting .net core 1.0.0 that tries to access a SQL Server database running on a different VM. I can ping the VM running SQL Server from my machine.

When I try to run the console application using dotnet run from the command prompt on my machine it works fine. But when the same application is run inside a docker container I get a message

A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while

establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or

was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that

SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: TCP

Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)

I tried using

docker run --add-host sqldemo:

but that made no difference.
