When you move a file between two NTFS formatted servers, what will happen to the file's permissions?

When a file is moved between two NTFS formatted servers, it will inherit the permissions of the destination folder. This behavior is due to how NTFS manages permissions. When a file is moved, its original permissions are not preserved in the same manner they would be if it were copied. Instead, once the file reaches the new location, it conforms to the security settings of that new folder.

This is important for maintaining a consistent security model within the file system. By inheriting the destination folder's permissions, it allows administrators and users to better manage access based on the organizational structure or security policies that might be in place at the destination location.

In contrast, the other options either suggest an incorrect change in access levels or maintain security settings that do not apply to the move operation between servers. This inheritance of permissions is a central feature of how NTFS is designed to provide flexibility while ensuring security compatibility within folders.
