You got the answer before I had a chance to chime in :)  ACL's are not
default on most Linux systems, however if your in a multiple user
environment they are all but required to maintain sanity :)  If any one is
interested I wrote a fairly decent manual on how to mange ACL's.

Ok that did it!  

I had to edit my /etc/fstab file and acl to the file system options then
remount.  Thanks guys!

I tried the same thing and got the same results as you. So, that's not
it at all. 

Then I did a search...

ot-supported-266804/

Notice that you may need to mount the filesystem with acl support.
