Open Source all documents - PPRNNews - 01-02-2012

I have about 30 GB of documents I want to make open source. Which to me means:
Permissions set for all users to view and download

I have tried 2 documents and it seems I have to give each NEW person permission to view/dl every file. Even the admins.

How can I:

1. Let all users see the documents, old and new
2. Let all NEW users see all documents

All without me having to alter each users access to individual documents?

You just need to set the "All Unset Departments" permission to be Read permissions. That basically says if there is not a specific permission already set for this file and the users' specific department, then it will use the "Unset Department" permission value.

So if I have then categories for each type of doc, for example, food storage / water storage, they would go UNDER that department?

Categories and Departments are two separate things. Departments are attached to permissions.
