When using the LockPermission's table, it simply overwrites any ACL's that have already been defined.
I use the XCACLS.VBS tool to 'append' permissions to file/folders, and (most of the time) secedit to apply registry key permissions.
Hope this explains it...

The LockPermissions Table can frustrate you tremendously. It doesn't always work as one would think. I use SetACL.exe for both file & registry.

Additionally I need to say that with the LockPermissions table you can only set permissions on single registry keys instead of full parts of the tree. That's why we use vb scripts and sdb's most of the time.

I use secedit. It has inherited permission for both files and folder. Works Great!
