Applying the audit attribut

[Harrison Midkiff]

Hello:

I have a folder that contains many sub folders and files. I need to apply
the auditing attribute to all of them. I tried adding the attribute and
then selecting "Reset auditing entries on all child objects and enable
propagation of inheritable auditing entries". Unfortunately it is not
setting the attribute all the way down.

Does anyone know of a way to force the auditing attribute all the way down?

In that situation you don't want the "inherit" checkbox checked.

I tried that but the attribute is not set on the objects lower in the
hierarchy. Any ideas?

More information...

I noticed that the second folder in my hierarchy has the correct auditing
attributes on it, but under the "Apply to" it says "This folder only". I am
not sure but I think this is by design. I have to think I should be able to
apply the audit attribute all the way down the hierarchy?

The folders lower in the tree may not have "inherit" checked.
