Dunno why I seem to be having so much trouble with this. I want to
turn on inheritance on a user home folder. It already has all the
permissions I want it to have, the only problems is that inheritance
is turned off, so new files/folders aren't getting those permissions.

I thought that

icacls <folder> /I:e /T

would do it, based on what I found on web searches.  But what happens
is that the permissions are doubled - one set listing as "not
inherited", and then the same permissions again, this time listed as
properly inheriting from above.

So what am I doing wrong? I've tried without the /T, to no effect. Do
I need to "/reset /T /C", to remove all explicit permissions, then
"/I:e /T" to have it inherit? because then I would need to add in the
user explicitly again, and set the user to be owner.
