You might be able to create a batch file to accomplish this. XCOPY has
a /o switch which will copy permissions. Command would look something
like:
xcopy sourcedir destinationdir /s/e/o
Use xcopy /? to find the other options.
I use xcopy when I need to move folders to a different drive and don't
want to have to worry about resetting permissions. I also use "net
share" command to create/delete shares and set share permissions.
Together in a batch file with passing it parameters makes a handy tool.

Scott,
Ok, you understand where I'm at, that makes sense but what I was
wondering is there a way to do this across the board without doing each
folder one at a time when they are created?
My magic button would be to search for subfolders called "whatever" and
apply the following security group and don't inherit the permissions.
or
Copy a folder from a different area would when dropped it would have the
appropriate security and a of course no inherited permissions.
Also a way so search and view the folders to verify and manage this.
Patrick
PS: I guess I'm trying to see how far I can go using windows server file
system's ability without purchasing a formal document storage and
archiving system.

Patrick,
For Sub-Folders that you do not want to inherit security from a Parent
Folder, uncheck the "Allow inheritable permissions from the parent to
propagate to this object and all child objects. Include these with
entries
explicitly defined here.".
This is found in the Security Tab of the Shared folder by clicking the
Advanced button.
You will be given the choice to Copy or Remove the Security. Read the
descriptions and it will explain what both of those mean.

Subject: [Vantage] OFF TOPIC - Windows Server 2003 Subfolder Security
This is a question on Windows Server 2003 Subfolder Security.
I control file security for general network shares with groups, here is
a generic example:
Shared folder = AccountsReceivable
Group 1 = AR view only group
Group 2 = AR publisher group
Group 3 = AR Editors group
Each group used in securing this folder would then have the appropriate
security settings.
Also everything below the shard folder "AccountsReceivable" would be set
inherit permission from the parent, etc...
If within the shared folder "AccountsReceivable" we create folders for
customers.
Acme
Company2
Company3
Etc...
If I create the same subfolder under each Customer called say
"Confidential", can I somehow set this folder to a different security
group, say "Group4"
Group 4 = Accounting Controller publisher Group.
I hope I have explained this properly.
Patrick
