SandWeb does not actually create repositories, what you are doing is
giving SandWeb info about an existing repository ( we may be able to
create modules in the future, actual creation of a repository requires
access to the server though. That's possible too but not planned ).

You need to already have an existing CVS repository and module to check
out, according to this error you left the module name field blank.

Here's a good introductory guide to doing that :
http://www.cvshome.org/docs/blandy.html

If you check out and existing module, you should be able to add files and
folders through SandWeb.

Unfortunately no, I've been working on API docs mostly :)

I'd like to have a user's guide that is linked from the application
itself, via a "help" button on every screen. But this is post-1.0
work for me.

The repositories must already exist for SandWeb to use them.

Think of SandWeb as a CVS client, it does not help to administer 
a CVS server in any way. Think of it as you would WinCVS or command-line
"cvs".
