Hi folks! Has anyone tried this slightly unusual setup? 1. Run Rancher Server as a Docker container inside Windows (WSL2 + Docker/Moby) 2. From the Rancher UI (running in Docker), import the Rancher Desktop Kubernetes cluster (or a Kubernetes cluster created with k3d) as a Downstream Cluster using the “Import Existing Cluster” option I’m curious if anyone has managed to get this working end-to-end, and if so, what the steps or gotchas were 🙏 Reference doc: https://docs.rancherdesktop.io/how-to-guides/rancher-on-rancher-desktop Concretely: • Run
rancher/rancher
in WSL2 Docker → access the Rancher UI • From that UI, use “Import Existing Cluster” to register Rancher Desktop’s Kubernetes (or k3d cluster) as a downstream cluster Any tips around networking, DNS, or certificates would be especially helpful. Even just a “yes it works / nope it doesn’t” would already be useful! 🐙 Also, if anyone has managed to register a Downstream Cluster via Create instead of Import, I’d love to hear about that as well. Thanks in advance!
