I wanted to enter some stuff into crontab in my personal account on my
server box.  I entered "crontab -e" and got the error:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] michael $ crontab -e
-bash: /usr/bin/crontab: Permission denied
[EMAIL PROTECTED] michael $ ls -l /usr/bin/crontab
-rws--x---  1 root cron 9896 Feb 26 02:16 /usr/bin/crontab

I did ls -l on /usr/bin/crontab on my personal computer and got the same
output:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] michael $ ls -l /usr/bin/crontab
-rws--x---  1 root cron 10756 Apr 13 16:22 /usr/bin/crontab


but I can edit my crontab on my personal computer.  How would I fix
this?  I can't even tell what's wrong with it, why I can use crontab on
baby but not on bullet....
