Cut paste rights

[HDI]

Hi,

When a user cut and paste a file into a folder the file holds the user
rights.

When a user copy and paste a file into a folder the file takes over the
correct folder rights.

Does anyone know why and how to handle this?

Thx

cut/paste is a move
copy/paste is a copy
copy always caused new copy to have permissions
as defined for copied-to location
move acts just like copy if move is to a different partition
if move is within one partition, move keeps explicit permissions
originally on the moved, but (eventually) looses inheritied
permissions originally on the moved and obtains inherited
permissions defined for the moved-to location

I recommend for pre-Vista versions that one always copy
and then delete the original when wanting to move within
a single partition.
