Here's what I did to fix the issue (I use OS X v10.10 (Yosemite) and the accepted answer didn't work for me):

• boot2docker delete - Warning: this deletes all your Docker images.
• In VirtualBox, go to VirtualBox (menu) → Preferences → Network → Host Only Networks
  • Delete the host only networks, and then I re-added them
• boot2docker init
• boot2docker up

Now Docker works from the OS X command line via iTerm2 for me.
