I have a server that is having issues with permissions. Something has caused the server to not be able to read security permissions on directories. If I look at them they either don't display or are greyed out. If I go into a certain directory and look at the permissions and click on change and then click on the box to apply to subdirectories then that seems to fix the problem. I was hoping there was a way to have the system re-apply/reactivate the permissions that are already there so I don't mess up any special permissions under the main directories.
Hopefully this makes sense and there is such a way
