Check the permissions on /usr/bin/crontab.  It should be setgid crontab.

hobbit:~$ ls -l /usr/bin/crontab
-rwxr-sr-x 1 root crontab 51936 Jun 13  2025 /usr/bin/crontab*


[Z:~] ls -al /usr/bin/crontab
-rwxr-sr-x 1 root crontab 51936 Jun 13  2025 /usr/bin/crontab
[Z:~]

So that looks to be the same as yours.

If that's not it, then look for /etc/cron.{allow,deny} files.


[Z:etc] ls -al /etc/cron.allow
ls: cannot access '/etc/cron.allow': No such file or directory
[Z:etc] ls -al /etc/cron.deny
ls: cannot access '/etc/cron.deny': No such file or directory
[Z:etc]
