trying to use ACLs

Hi,
I'm running FreeBSD 5.4-Release and trying to make use of the ACLs
feature. I've enabled it on the partition I'm using. I can set access ACLs
on a directory just fine, but whenever I try to set a default ACL, I get
the following:
%setfacl -dn -m g:PR:rwx test
setfacl: warning: no mask entry
setfacl: acl_set_file() failed for test: Invalid argument
%
The group PR does exist as I can change the group owner for test to PR. It
complains that there is no default mask. So I try:
%setfacl -d -m m::rwx test
setfacl: acl_set_file() failed for test: Invalid argument
%
I'm guessing that the default ACLs are what are assigned to any file
created inside the directory. Is this correct? If so, that is useful.
Any ideas what I can try next?
Thanks,
Jon
