Try using SetNamedSecurityInfo instead. I think SetFileSecurity is actually
considered
obsolete now.
After playing around with both of these, it appears SetNamedSecurityInfo will
cause the inherited ACEs to propagate to existing subfolders, whereas
SetFileSecurity doesn't.
win32security.SetNamedSecurityInfo(fullpath, win32security.SE_FILE_OBJECT,
win32security.DACL_SECURITY_INFORMATION,None, None, dacl1, None)
