Hello,

Due to current COVID-19 situation, I’m trying to work on an app running on BalenaOS at home.  
My laptop can reach our corporate docker registry, but my IoT device cannot.  
I have set up a docker registry on my laptop, so I can pull image down, and push onto it, so the IoT device can access accross my LAN.

My problem is - Can I configure the build do use my registry as an insecure registry why I perform `balena push` ?

I’m currently getting the following error during push…

```auto
Some services failed to build:
	angelia: (HTTP code 500) server error - Get https://192.168.40.32:5000/v2/: http: server gave HTTP response to HTTPS client

```

Thanks

Ah!  
Can edit `/etc/docker/daemon.json` on the device!

I thought the fs was read only! 🙂

You may also check the whole local mode documentation we provide and the section about the private docker registry: [https://www.balena.io/docs/learn/develop/local-mode/#using-a-private-docker-registry](https://www.balena.io/docs/learn/develop/local-mode/#using-a-private-docker-registry). You should not have a problem with running a private registry from your laptop.  
Thanks,
