What you probably want is to alter it to something like this: $propagation = [system.security.accesscontrol.PropagationFlags]"InheritOnly" That should propagate all the way down for you then :) If you're wondering what else you can set the propagation flags to, you can take a look at the following technet doc :) http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.security.accesscontrol.propagationflags.aspx Hi Jason,

Pretty much the same as going in the advanced security tab and checking the box to "Replace All Existing Permissions on all Descendants with Inhertiable Permissions from this Object. Maybe even as part of the script? I can't find a way to even work with this checkbox/property in Powershell.

We had an issue where we ran chkdsk on our user share volume and it messed some of the permissions up. We now have the hotfix from here: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;831374 I was wondering, in testing this, it looks like your script will do the job, however, after resetting the permisisons at the home folder level, they don't propergate down to the current files unless we go in and check the box to Replace All Existing Inhertitable Permissions on all desendeants with inhertiable permissons from this oject. Do you know of a way to do this with Powershell as part of your script? Any help would be great! Hey, love your script.
