Jaune said his father, grandfather, etc were warriors, not huntsman. He also called them heroes.

Now, he didn't know anything about aura s othe family of huntsman theory can be ruled out, even if he was never trained he would know something about it by virtue of growing upa surrounded by people with those abilities.

Now, what sort of ordinary warrior with no special powers can be called a hero?

a soldier

Crocea Mors is also a very plain weapon, like those which would be mass-produced for soldiers in a war, with minimal customization in the form of a unique paint job.

Now, what is so important about Jaune?

Abso-fucking-lutely nothing. He is, simply put, a very lucky idiot. He is also a sincere individual, and in general a good person, but nothing special; hundreds of millions of people just like him exist all over the world, he happens to be one of the few to decide he wanted to be more than that so he cheated his way into super soldier school on fake records and dumb luck.

Now, about his dad and giving advice; He likely did not fully grasp what attending Beacon would mean, what exactly initiaiton would entail. If he is a soldier rather than a huntsman, odds are he doesn't need to know what aura is, so he didn't give Jaune any information on that subject; of which he knew nothing.
