Hai David, 

This is what im having, and no problems with the / share on sernet samba 4.1.3 


tested mount from : 
smbd -V  : Version 3.5.6
debian kernel :  2.6.32-bpo.5-amd64 
OS Debian Lenny

to: debian wheezy, latest kernal sernet samba 4.1.3 
smb.conf
[global]
        workgroup = MYDOMAIN
        realm = subdomain.domain.tld
        netbios name = MYNETBIOSNAME
        server role = active directory domain controller
        server services = s3fs, rpc, nbt, wrepl, ldap, cldap, kdc, drepl, winbind, ntp_signd, kcc, dnsupdate

# ---- disable printing completely
        load printers = no
        printing = bsd
        printcap name = /dev/null
        disable spoolss = yes

[netlogon]
        path = /home/samba/sysvol/rotterdam.bazuin.nl/scripts
        read only = No

[sysvol]
        path = /home/samba/sysvol
        read only = No


[myroot]
        path = /
        read only = No

used line: 
mount -t cifs //192.168.249.212/myroot /mnt -o username=Administrator,sec=ntlmv2

Works perfectly. 

for you, 
>mount error(13): Permission denied 
try the following, shorten the lines first and try to locate where te probleem is. 
your line: 
sudo mount.cifs //phoinix/config /mnt/phx-cfg -o username=david,uid=1000,credentials=/home/david/.dcr/mountcfile,noperm
try : 
sudo mount -t cifs //phoinix/config /mnt/phx-cfg -o username=david,sec=ntlmv2 
if it works add a parameter. 
as username you can also try username="DOMAINNAME\david" 

test it and let it know.


Greetz, 

Louis
