busybox:latest -- toomanyrequests work around

[nodesocket]

As I understand, if I provide authentication to Docker Hub I can get around the rate limits on pulling busybox. I tried adding imagePullSecrets to the initImage block, but I am still getting:

Failed to pull image `busybox:latest": rpc error: code = Unknown desc = Error response from daemon: toomanyrequests: You have reached your pull rate limit. You may increase the limit by authenticating and upgrading: https://www.docker.com/increase-rate-limit

Example:

# This image should contain `nc` and a shell of some kind to do a simple loop.
initImage:
  # initImage.repository -- Docker image to use for initContainers
  repository: busybox
  # initImage.repository -- Tag to use for initContainers docker image
  tag: latest
  imagePullSecrets:
    - regcred

regcred is a secret that contains valid Docker Hub credentials.

imagePullSecrets is defined in the podspec, not with the individual container images. Have you tried setting imagePullSecrets?
