Can't check out a newly created module

[Anette Van Aswegen]

Hi

I created a new module (folder) and group on the server. Now I would like to
check it out through WinCvs 1.2 but after the
checkout process nothing is checked out. I receive the following messages:

cvs checkout -P Sebi (in directory C:\cvsroot)
cvs checkout: in directory Sebi:
cvs checkout: cannot open CVS/Entries for reading: No such file or directory
cvs server: Updating Sebi

*****CVS exited normally with code 0*****

The directory does exist. I can view it on the server. It lies with all the
others which
have no problem to check out. I thought that maybe he will not checkout
because nothing exists
in the module yet. So I created a text file in the directory. I still
receive the same message.

Must I let CVS know there is a new module or sort of activate the new
module. How can I fix the problem?

Thank you for your help.
