<p>I am trying to join a ubuntu host to rhel kubernetes master.
Installed kubernetes version 1.24.3 and using crio runtime.
If i join a rhel vm to rhel kubernetes master. There is no issue.
But when i join the ubuntu to host to rhel kubernetes master. kube-proxy in kube-system is stuck in container creating state.</p>
<p>Describe the node and getting the following error:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Failed to create pod sandbox: rpc error: code = Unknown desc = error
creating pod sandbox with name
&quot;k8s_kube-proxy-s56kp_kube-system_(ID)&quot;: initializing source
docker://registry.k8s.io/pause:3.6: pinging container registry
registry.k8s.io: Get &quot;https://registry.k8s.io/v2/&quot;: dial tcp (ip):443:
i/o timeout</p>
</blockquote>
<p>How to resolve this issue?</p>

Prems
<p>Found the solution :</p>
<p>Proxy has to be set in <code>/etc/sysconfig/crio</code>:</p>
<pre><code>HTTP_PROXY=&lt;proxy&gt;
HTTPS_PROXY=&lt;proxy&gt; 
NO_PROXY=&lt;IPs&gt;

systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl restart crio
</code></pre>
