Hi, I'd like to connect to my running dockerd (moby) via a TCP port. According to Internet search, there ought to be an "Advanced" settings page, where I can configure that. However, my Rancher Desktop (1.4.1) doesn't have that, and I didn't find such an option anywhere else? Thanks!

Can you point me to the page that shows how this can be configured? I don't think this is currently possible.

Can you also explain why you can't use the UNIX socket instead, which is generally more secure.

Do you want to talk to the socket from within the VM (or within a container), or from the host?

It may be possible to forward the unix socket to a tcp socket with a Lima override, but I would need to test it, so I would want to know first if this is what you are looking for.
