The common ones come up fine,
it's the individuals that take forever. (I.E.: Owner /Person not from
inherited rights)

each user has a folder that they own "The Users/UserName"
Each individual (i.e. JDoe) user is the one that has the problem.
Enterprise Admins, Domain Admins, etc. are all fine.

This would be a function of DNS?
