# ls -l /etc/group
-rw-------  1 root root 567 Nov 22 01:42 /etc/group

..ah, so chmod 640, and now I get

# crontab -e
23:48:44 user "fcron" is not in passwd file. Aborting.

Looked at file attributes and found that the /etc/passwd had some 600.
Change /etc/passwd to 640, and now

# crontab -e
00:15:48 fcrontab : editing root's fcrontab
Modifications will be taken into account right now.

..but I guess this is a security issue, having the 640 attributes.

When fcron is installed - what is default attributes ?
