I don’t have any information specific to the problem… but one thing to keep in mind, the communication from docker to nexus looks like this:

Docker Client —\> Docker Server —\> Neus Repo

So whatever is going wrong here is in between the server and Nexus. Examining the docker daemon logs would be a good idea.
