8I EE on RH 6.0: can't specify MAXEXTENTS UNLIMITED

Surely I'm doing something wrong. I'm quite new to Oracle, so be gentle...

I've just installed 8i EE on a fresh RH 6.0 system. I copied some of the commands from the scripts
that made my database because I want to create my own tablespace. For some reason, the
MAXEXTENTS UNLIMITED that I copied is unacceptable to svrmgrl. It complains of an
illegal value. When I remove that phrase, the commands go through.

Any hints?
