Just to rule out: I assume as you mentioned, you did manually remove the
file in the working folder via the remove command of the operating system
and then executed cvs remove, and finally cvs commit. If you execute the 3
steps above and still receive the odd behavior, that means a file by the
same name in some form of upper or lower case already exists in the Attic
subfolder and you must login directly to the server browse to that specific
Attic directory to do some investigation or renaming, stitching, and
merging, etc.

Hello to all!
I'm experiencing some *very* odd behavior when a user attempted to remove
a file from a repository and would appreciate some help. User removed a
file correctly using cvs rm filename, but when he committed the file, he
received a permissions error.
cvs commit: cannot rename PathToFile/util.h,v to
PathToFile/Attic/util.h,v: Permission denied
[...]
I don't have any suggestions to add to Pierre Asselin's, but I can offer a
bit of explanation of what you're seeing.
Moving dead files into the Attic directory is not a requirement for
"killing" them, it is simply an optimization to help keep things a little
tidier in the repository. CVS should work just fine with the dead file in
the current directory.
