What you report for moving files may be correct behavior.
What you report in second post for copying should never happen.
The way things work is:
for copy: new copy should always have permissions as determined
only by the copy-to location
for move:
if between partitions behavior is same as for a copy
if within a single partition: explicit permissions of the moved are
retained, and (eventually) inherited permissions of the moved are
dropped and replaced with inherited permissions from the copy-to
location
I recommend always doing a copy and then remove the copied when
wanting to move within a partition. The default permissions due to a
move within a partition are both (usually) administratively meaningless
and also indeterminant for a period of time due to the unpredictable
delay in the replacement of the inherited permissions.

As my understanding that whatever the security setting in the destination
folder is,
it will be propagating to the files within that folder, please correct me
if
i am wrong!
In this case, whenever we copy files from a folder to another folder, the
security
setting of files still have the security setting of previous folder's
instead of destination folder's.
Let say we copy 2 files (of course, we use domain admin/root administrator
to perform the
test), there are chances that 1 of 2 files will be not getting the
security
setting of destination
folder.
I do not really know why it does this, but anyone can have the hint, that
appreciate!!

Hi there,
I have 2 folders, A and B, C on Windows 2000/SP3 Domain controller
We have strange problem that when we move files:
1. 2 files from C to A, one file got security propagation of folder A,
another still has from C's
2. 2 files from C to B, the same result as above
3. 2 files from A to C, B, the same result as above
4. 2 files from B to A, C, the same result as above
Conclusion: it is very clear that security propagation is not working
correctly in this case,
any one has hints to fix this problem?
Folder A permission setting:
RMA group, Sales Group = Read & Execute
Administrator/Domain Admin/Administrators = Full
User1 = Modify
System = Full
Folder B Permission setting:
RMA group, Accounting group = Read/Execute
RMA group, Sales Group = Read & Execute
Administrator/Domain Admin/Administrators = Full
User1 = Modify
System = Full
Folder C Permission Setting:
RMA, Accounting, Sales = read/execute
Administrator/Domain Admin/Administrators = Full
User1 = Modify
System = Full
.
