1: apt should tell you if you use it interactively. It is usually only a
kernel update that requires this. I would not do a dist-upgrade unattended,
and it is not really very easy to script.
How are you doing this?
2: you need to use mod_userdir. You can google instructions, but here is a
snippet from my httpd.conf
#
# UserDir: The name of the directory that is appended onto a user's home
# directory if a ~user request is received.
#
UserDir public_html
#UserDir enabled
#UserDir disabled maddox
#
# Control access to UserDir directories. The following is an example
# for a site where these directories are restricted to read-only.
#
<Directory /home/*/public_html>
php_flag engine off

<LimitExcept GET POST OPTIONS PROPFIND>
