We really need more information than you've provided. What's the OS? How are you configuring a "maint user"? Is there a special environment? Are you using ACL's? Sun's Security tool (name escapes me but like Sudo)? Sudo Smilie ?

NAME
acl_first_entry - Resets the current ACL entry to be the first ACL entry LIBRARY
Security Library (libpacl.a) SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/acl.h> int acl_first_entry( acl_t acl_d); PARAMETERS
Specifies the working storage internal representation ACL descriptor. DESCRIPTION
NOTE: This function is based on Draft 13 of the POSIX P1003.6 standard. The acl_first_entry() function sets the internal ACL entry offset pointer of the specified ACL such that a subsequent call to acl_get_entry() for that ACL, returns the first entry in the ACL. RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, the acl_first_entry() function returns a value of 0 (zero). Otherwise, a value of -1 is returned, and the errno global variable is set to indicate the error. ERRORS
If any of the following conditions occur, the acl_first_entry() function sets errno to the corresponding value: The acl_d parameter does not refer to a valid ACL structure. RELATED INFORMATION
