I have a single flat domain that has migrated from NT to 2003 to 2008. A number of the global groups go back to the mid ninties.
I recently purchased a EMC VNXe 3300 for addition storage, joined it to the domain, migrated a bunch of folders with permissions using robocopy no problem.
Now I have one shared folder and the global security permission applied to the top level folder but did not decend the tree. I tried applying it from the advanced security tab and choose apply to this folder and all child objects and folder or some such verbiage. I could not get that permission on anything below the top level unless I went to the object explictly and applied it.
I created a new global security group and applied it to the folder and it descended the tree with no problems.
I have hundreds of folders and hundreds of groups I need to move to this new storage, I have no idea what is wrong here?
