Inheritance has always been present in NT. According to;
http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q102/0/24.asp
which applies to NT 3.1, the move versus copy issue you describe has always
been by design since its first release. That it is or isn't the same as
Netware or Mac OS isn't relevant.
If a file is copied into a directory, it gets the inherited permissions of
the directory its being copied into.
If a file is moved into a directory, it retains its original permissions.
ACLs in NT have always been displayed as explicit, even if they were
inherited from the parent directory. The updated ACL editor included in NT
4.0 SP4 properly shows inherited ACLs versus explicit, assuming of course
that you didn't use a pre-SP4 ACL editor to modify ACLs. See;
http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q287/0/24.ASP
for more information.
As I said in private mail rejecting this post initially, I don't see a bug
here. If someone submits a reasonable explanation as to why this is a bug
then I'll put it through.
