Container can't connect to another container on same host using external DNS or host IP

Docker Engine Compose

It seems to be very similar to another topic we are currently discussing

Edited:

On the other hand your situation could have been solved by network aliases. Example:

services:
  test:
    depends_on:
      - httpd
    image: nicolaka/netshoot
    command:
      - nslookup
      - yourdomain.com

  httpd:
    image: httpd:2.4
    networks:
      default:
        aliases:
          - yourdomain.com

Run the test:

docker compose up

And the domain will be resolved to the ip address of the container.
