Permissions on parent group

Hi all,
I have this folder structure:
A
A > B
A > B > C

And this groups hierarchy ('>' stands as children of):
GROUP_A
GROUP_A > GROUP_A.B
GROUP_A > GROUP_A.B > GROUP_A.B.C

I removed inheritance and set for each folder the corresponding group with consumer rights, so in the folder B there is only GROUP_A.B with consumer rights.

Now, if I have a user that is children of GROUP_A.B.C, and so it is children of GROUP_A and GROUP_A.B, I'm expecting that he will see all the folders, but he can only access to folder C.

How can I see all the folders with these settings?

I have set up a folder structure and group structure along with permissions set exactly as you describe and I cannot recreate this problem on 4.2.e Community Edition.

Sorry, I'm a bit too late, but I reply anyway.

The problem was caused by an error in the permission that was set in that folder. The permissions were written by a web service job and sometimes the group name was with the prefix GROUP_ and sometime not, but from the explorer interface you cannot see this.

Thanks Jeff and excuse me form my late reply!
