Yes. I was su'ed as root and just 'service hobbit restart'. Still the same problem. I notice in my previous installation I simply turn-on world execute:
-rwsr-x--x 1 root adm 29850 Feb 16 2005 fping
But I don't think that is the proper solution, although probably not a problem in my case since my system will not have "real" users.

Did you stop and restart hobbit after changing the /etc/group file?? If you start it in a terminal window, you'll probably need to logout and log back in.
