New NSM/setup/sostat packages

I've updated the NSM, setup, and sostat packages and the new package versions are as follows:
 securityonion-nsmnow-admin-scripts - 20120724-0ubuntu0securityonion110
 securityonion-setup - 20120912-0ubuntu0securityonion130
 securityonion-sostat - 20120722-0ubuntu0securityonion32

These new packages have been tested by the following (thanks!):
