Hi,

after hunting around for some weeks now, I've finally found the culprit
to my permission problems with fcron[tab]

First,
some Gentoo package must have changed the UID of several executables 
and directories of the sys-process/fcron package to 'stunnel'
instead of 'fcron'.
I've found and fixed these long ago but still it didn't work.
Now, I've found out, that in
/etc/passwd
the user 'fcron' had a GID which wasn't in /etc/group any longer. 
Probably, when sys-process/fcron is reinstalled, portage does not
seem to change the entry in /etc/passwd (which it has created
itself some time ago)

This was a hard one.

Again, many thanks to all of you who have helped me,
Helmut.
