User profiles disappearing

This is a problem we are experiencing with OS 10.6.8 on an X Serve with client iMacs. I have some users that have been on our system for 4 months, in which time they've built up work only to find it missing since our return from the Christmas break.

All user accounts are set up in the same manner, in the same network share, and using time machine on the X serve are backed up to our SAN. I'm currently unable to restore lost work/profiles, as whilst the user is visible in Workgroup Manager, looking on the iMac they've used, the share directory or the Time Machine backups, I see absolutely no trace of their profile.

Any help is appreciated
