Subject: cron problem

I've installed cron-3.0.1-1 and run the service:

 /$ ps -a
      PID    PPID    PGID     WINPID  TTY  UID    STIME COMMAND
     1732       1    1732       1732    ?   18 12:49:07
/usr/bin/cygrunsrv
     1748    1732    1732        920    ?   18 12:49:07 /usr/sbin/cron

However, I could not run crontab:

 /$ crontab -e
seteuid: Invalid argument
 /$ crontab -u leonid -e
must be privileged to use -u
 
What is wrong?
 
--Leonid

PS. I have administrative account under Win2000
