I have a minikube setup where a container needs to access npm registry when starting up. But the pod can not connect to npm registry. I was under the impression that all outgoing connections are open from K8s.

Log from the pod

kubectl logs <pod_name>

npm ERR! code EAI_AGAIN
npm ERR! errno EAI_AGAIN
npm ERR! request to https://registry.npmjs.org/sequelize-cli failed, reason: getaddrinfo EAI_AGAIN registry.npmjs.org

npm ERR! A complete log of this run can be found in:
npm ERR!     /root/.npm/_logs/2021-04-14T12_16_23_892Z-debug.log
Install for [ 'sequelize-cli@latest' ] failed with code 1
