 From vc-cvs.el:

(defalias 'vc-cvs-make-version-backups-p 'vc-stay-local-p
   "Return non-nil if version backups should be made for FILE.")

So, read up on vc-stay-local-p (the function), then customize 
vc-cvs-stay-local or vc-stay-local (the variables).  E.g.

(setq vc-cvs-stay-local '(except "mycvsserver"))
