Default Sharing Folder Question

I have a question regarding sharing folders:

Lets say that we have a folder named "A"
Within this folder we have embedded Folders Such as the tree below:

A/B/B1/B2
/D/D1/D2
/E/E1/E2

and so on...
what I'm wondering about is if there is a way to share all of these folders without setting the share for each one independently... For example in order for me to share A + B + B1 + B2 I have to right click on each folder and set the sharing up per folder
, would there not be a way to simply right click on Folder A and have each folder within the folder of A all shared at the same time with one simple action/setting?

Rich,

This is called Inherited Permissions. For local access, Inherited Permissions
is enabled under the Security tab, Advanced button. For remote access, it's
implied.

Cheers,
