if you are using PHP, here's an example
Code:
<?php
    $arr=array();
    $destination = '/dest';
    $directory = '/src';
    foreach ( glob("rib*gz" ) as $filename ) {
        echo "filename: $filename\n";
        $split = explode(".",$filename);
        if (array_key_exists($split[1],$arr) ) {
            continue;
        }else {
            $arr[$split[1]]=$filename;
        }
    }
    foreach ( $arr as $k=>$v ){
        if (! copy("$directory/$v","$destination/$v")) {
            echo "Cannot copy";
        }
    }
?>
