Looks like you're fine. The last output line means that CVS skipped any
files that still existed.

You can double check by running the command 'cvs -nq update'. The -n
parameter tells CVS not to really do anything, so it won't change
anything in your working directory, but you will see the same output as
the 'cvs update' command would have generated. Look for files with a
status of 'R', for locally removed.

You might want to get in the habit of using 'cvs help' to find the
syntax of a CVS command (in this case, it would be 'cvs help remove').
Just a thought ;=)
