Checkout wants a module name or a relative path from the root, so the
command you want would be:

        cvs checkout -P monModule

And please get used to using forward slashes with CVS rather than
backslashes.  Although backslashes *usually* work, they do not *always*
work and the resulting failures can be very subtle and hard to
understand.
