Re: Folders loosing inherited permissions (win 2k3 sp1)

For how long had the storage area held its defined ACLing that
you say was lost ? There are only two circumstances in which
I have seen something similar (other than as a result of an action
by someone that has not been "owned up to"). One is when a
security template has been triggered to apply. The other is when
the inherited permissions were there only because they used to
exist on the content before it had been moved to a new location
on the same partition. In the move within partition scenario the
explicit permissions carry along and are retained, but the inherited
are initially carried along and eventually (at an indeterminant future
point in time) the carried along inherited permissions are removed
and the inherited permissions appropriate to the new location (if
any) become applied.

Has anyone seen this before?
I have a file server that lost inherited permissions on sporadic
folders and files last night on one of its drives. Here's what they
have in common:

They are all sub-directories/files of shared folders.
The permissions remaining are Administrators group and System
Thanks,
