Applying permissions to all files in all subfolders

Hi,

I'm a newbie with AppleScript so please bear with me here! We've been having problems with permissions on a file share on our server, so i've decided to write a little folder action script to reapply the perms on the creation of a new a file. So far so good. However this only works for the top level of the folder. I need to apply to every existing subfolder and any new ones created. I was thinking i could do this by writing another script which gets a list of all the subfolders and attaches my script to them. Is it possible to do this? I can't find out how I would. The other alternative i've thought of is using Automator, but i'm not sure how that integrates with folder actions. Thanks for your help and apologies if this has been asked before...
Thanks
Tom
