Mount WebDAV share
I am using an filerun server on which I enabled ount WebDAV share.
Install davfs2 and mount the drive e.g. to /mnt/dav/
sudo apt-get install davfs2
sudo mount -t davfs -o noexec https://filerun.0xfab1.net/remote.php/webdav/ /mnt/dav/
Use umount to unmount the WebDAV share:
sudo umount /mnt/dav
Alternativly use fstab to make this process more convenient:
Run this command and make sure to allow unprivileged users to mount WebDAV resources:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure davfs2
Addtionally, make sure your user is member of the davfs2 group
sudo usermod -a -G davfs2 fab1
Edit /etc/fstab and add a line, for example for filerun.0xfab1.net:
https://filerun.0xfab1.net/remote.php/webdav/ /mnt/dav davfs _netdev,noauto,user,uid=fab1,gid=fab1 0 0
Edit /etc/davfs2/secrets and add username and password:
/mnt/dav fab1 password
Run this command to mount the WebDAV share to /mnt/dav
sudo mount /mnt/dav
Create the boot script
Example script that install updates to ubuntu automatically
The script "bootupdate.sh":
#!/bin/bash
sudo apt update && apt -y full-upgrade && apt -y autoremove
exit 0
Move "bootupdate.sh" to init.d

Add script to boot sequente
update-rc.d bootupdate.sh start 2
Install stuff
Download latest deb release and install it
