Comment (by tom):

 Hm, I think we want to solve the following:

 - setup_cron.sh needs to marked executable
 - We should centralize the variables and functionality shared in run_scan
 and stop_scan
 - I don't know why, but the setup_cron.sh script wipes out any existing
 cron entries you have. Or at least that is my experience.

 I can probably take these as actions to resolve and then we can merge.
