You should use "cvs remove" just like you would if the file had already
been commited; however, the "remove" procedure becomes quite simple if
you haven't commited - the server will never even know that the file existed.
My favorite way of getting rid of files is to simply remove all the file(s)
that you want gone, and then just typing "cvs remove". CVS will figure
out which files are missing and either schedule them for removal, or
just remove them from the "add" queue as appropriate.
