body: <p>i am able to interact with my private (organization) npm registry</p>
  
  <pre class="lang-sh prettyprint-override"><code>$ npm whoami --scope @myorg
  my-org-name
  
  $ npm view @myorg/pkg-name _npmUser
  my-org-name &lt;admin@my-org-name.com&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but i am unable to search the private npm registry.</p>
  
  <p>note that the organization npm registry does not have a dedicated hostname</p>
  
  <pre class="lang-sh prettyprint-override"><code>$ cat ~/.npmrc
  @myorg:registry=https://registry.npmjs.org/
  //registry.npmjs.org/:_authToken=xxxx-xxxx
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>how can i search within a private npm registry using the command line, that is via <code>npm search</code>?</p>
