To reach a service on the host (for example a local registry or a
development database), put the builder on the host network instead:

```console
$ docker buildx create --use --bootstrap \
--driver docker-container \
--name mybuilder \
--driver-opt network=host
```

The default `docker` driver cannot see Docker overlay networks. Use a
`docker-container` builder with `network=host` (or a user-defined
network, as above) when the build needs that connectivity.
