Hi, Robert,

You should be able, in your Kubernetes configuration, to specify the
WEBAPP_CONTEXT environment variable for the guacamole container, and set
the value of that to "ROOT", which will deploy Guacamole at the root (/)
context. Then, when you do your ingress configuration and/or route, just
point it to the root URL instead of Guacamole. Should not be any need to do
any redirection or anything like that.
