How do I grant access to on an NTFS folder (Win2003) such that when files are added to this folder, they get the same access permissions? My problem is that I have granted read access to the ‘network service’ on a specific folder but when I add files to that folder (programatically generate the files to this folder), the network service does not have read access to these files. I would have thought that the permissions cascade to the files in the folder? Any help is highly appreciated.

Are the child objects in the folder inheriting permissions from the parent? Right-click the folder-properties-permissions-advanced.
And are you moving (as opposed to copying) the files in the folder? Move files also moves their permissions.
