To check, use the "lsacl" command to list the initial file ACL on the directory. To change the initial file ACL to be UNIX-style (either BSD or System V style), you can use the "chacl" command; "chacl -B" sets BSD-style inheritance (file owner is the creator's uid, while group comes from the directory), and I forget what the flag for System V style inheritance (both file owner and file group come from the creator's uid and gid). See the chacl documentation. -Larry Allen Open Software Foundation
