Hi,

What do I have to do under python windows to create a directory with all 
permissions, such, that new files / directories created below will 
inherit the permissions.


The reason I am asking is, that I'd like to create a directory structure 
where multiple users should be allowed to read / write / create files 
and directories.


Alternatively it would be even better to specify exactly which users 
should be allowed to access the directory tree.

I never used / modified Windows file permissions except once or twice 
via explorer. I'm thus a little shaky with Microsoft's file permissions.

Thanks in advance for your answer.
