I want same Permission on all directory inside it.

Question

I have directory which have 777 permission on it . I want every directory to have the same permission that i created in it or will create in it.

777 is not a safe approach...If you still want to this, do a search in google like "how to set umask to a directory", you will certainly find what you need. — Eduardo Baitello, Mar 08 '17 at 11:50
If your filesystem supports ACLs, you could set a default acl on directories to have special access righs set on newly created directories. See http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/1314/how-to-set-default-file-permissions-for-all-folders-files-in-a-directory — ridgy, Mar 08 '17 at 12:08

I'd do something along these lines:

find directory/subdirectory -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;

It doesn't really make sense as to why you'd want to do it though, why would you want all the files to be executable?

The intention is to set file permissions in creation time. – Eduardo Baitello Mar 08 '17 at 11:53

You can use umask 0777 to do this.

That's quite broad, applies everywhere, and will cause problems for e.g. ssh and other processes that are strict about permissions. – thrig Mar 30 '17 at 01:47
