The stock 2.4.21 does *not* support ACLs.  The RedHat 2.4.21 kernel does
not either (although SuSEs does).  He said in the subject he's on Redhat
8!  It's very important to listen to what the guy's saying, because
seeing as he's not on  SuSE Linux 9, your experience is going to be very
different from his, assuming you don't know the difference between which
distributions include which in their kernels.
