I´m using this script which uses the unix command chmod.
You can select a bunch of folders and use this script via AppleScript
menu.
u > User
o > Owner
g > Group
r > read
w > write
x > execute
-R > applies the command also on subfolders
You can find out what else it does in the Terminal: man chmod
-- Script begin
tell application "Finder"
set theListe to selection as list
end tell
repeat with i in theListe
set vSelection to POSIX path of (i as text)
do shell script "chmod -R u=rwx,o=rwx,g=rwx '" & vSelection & "'"
with administrator privileges
end repeat
-- Script end
Regards, Ronald

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
