changing permissions

[tsgdgcs]

We have a folder that looses its permissions every night.
The allow inheritable persmissions box is being unchecked leaving the folder without any permissions. The folder in question is the TSM folder.
We have turned on logging and can see event560 for the folder in the event log, however the event indicates that it is the system account changing the permissions.
Moreover the process id asscociated with this event is the services.exe process.
Anybody know how we can determine exactly what is changing the permissions? We suspect tivoli, but our Tivoli experts say no. We also have checked group policy but can find no policies that would cause this.
Any ideas would be greatley appreciated.

I'd blame Tivoli too. Those guys always lie!

You may want ot use XCACLS to script setting the permissions back every morning while you identify what is causing the problem.

You might also want to explicitly set the permissions instead of using inherrited permissions. That may resolve your issue too.

I hope you find this post helpful.
