Hi Bouga,
Not exactly a group policy related question
Anyway, when you copy a
file a *new* file is created, it inherits the permissions on the parent
folder, and you can't change that. The only case when a file retains its
permissions is when you *move* it in a folder on the *same* NTFS
partition/volume.
What specifically do you want to accomplish? You may need to script
permissions "synchronization" if you really need this.
