Subject: [PATCH] Start cron

Starts cron at system start and also sets hosts file to help avoid a DNS bug due to a potential bug in the wyzecam firmware by pulling the ip address automatically on startup rather than depending on a pre determined entry. This will address any change in IP the url may experience for whatever reason. Any connection interruption or issue caused by this can also be rectified by simply rebooting your camea.
