Right. In addition to Adam's advice: 

1) You probably didn't notice the difference between "fs" and "fsr".

Fsr is recursive so you don't have to do tricks on the command
line with find; just invoke fsr sa PARENT_DIR USER PERMS and it'll
do what it has to do.

2) To elaborate on Adam's explanation: if you unpack your tarball
somewhere, the permissions will be inherited from the parent dir.
But when you move that directory somewhere else, it'll take its
permissions with it, not inherit from the parent dir where you
move it to.

So, solution is to always unpack the tree in the directory where
you intend the files to be, or to just quickly call "fsr" (recursive)
on the files after moving/copying.
