Much help is appreciated.

If it helps I am running MacOSX.

EDIT:

Sorry for all the edits kind of trying to debug as the day goes.

authStringlocalhost

I have tried exposing a port on the host machine and accessing it with that port with no better luck (same hostname).

EDIT:

So it is a Mac only thing I assume. I cloned down the repo and ran on Windows 10 and I was able to connect to my auth service. Would this be Docker for Mac error? I am probably going to report it to them, but I would not consider this closed since it still is an issue for Mac users.
