I\'m struggling to get Kubernetes to work with my private hub.docker.com registry image.

The documentation is out of date, in that it refers to .dockercfg instead of .docker/config.json. I will update it.

When you use the new .docker/config.json format, you need to set type: kubernetes.io/dockerconfigjson instead of type: kubernetes.io/.dockercfg.

Support for type: kubernetes.io/dockerconfigjson was added in v1.1.0 so it is supported by your server, but is not supported by your client (which is v1.1.0-alpha which predates v1.1.0).

When you use type: kubernetes.io/dockerconfigjson, it should validate your secret contents.

With type: kubernetes.io/dockerconfigjson, you do want to keep the auths wrapper.
