!. You must not knock on the door before you enter my room. Native speakers never say 'knock the door'. English learners say it a lot.

2. . You must not do it at once. This is not natural, and I'm not sure what you mean.

3. You must not be a teacher. This is natural, but the meaning depends on the context in which it is said.
