It's really hard to guess what might be the problem. Since you are using 
a Samba share I could imagine that pdflatex searches for some files in 
the net. Does it work if you lookup some files like article.cls using 
kpsewhich (maybe using some debug setting to see, where texlive looks 
for files). Do other programs (e.g. simply latex) work?

If you use linux, does it also use the Samba share?

Good luck
