Error when running Seneca app on Docker container

[bojannyc]

I have node.js + seneca app running on docker container which need to access to MongDb server running on the Host machine. I used --net=host when started docker container, but Seneca service is failing to run due to connecting timeout issue. When the app is running locally on host machine everything works fine. Any advice?

a process of elimination is need to validate access to the mongo port:

• can the command line access mongo
• does the port appear with netstat
• etc
