Forcing file/directory properties

[Anne Wilson]

I know there is a way to force files to take on the properties/permissions of 
the directory in which it lives, but I can't remember how to do it, and can't 
find my notes.  I presume it's done with chmod, but the man page for chmod is 
totally opaque to me.
