Error Need to take one part from a string

I have a string something like "/opt/src/default.cfg" OR /opt/src/common/one

This whole string stored in an array. The problem is this string is not constant and it will keep on changing as lot of strings are stored in the array and it will be look like :-
case 1
/opt/src/default.cfg
/opt/sys/sec/default.cfg
/opt/st95psd.cfg

Sometimes it will be like

case2

/opt/src/common/one
/opt/src/common/two

only thing repeating is ".cfg" part or "/opt/src/common" .From case 1, I want only the last part which contain ".cfg" It means "default.cfg" or "st95psd.cfg" in this case. From case2, I want string which is comming after "/opt/src/common"

Please help me out

Thanks in advance

NAME
polygraph-dns-cfg - DNS server configuration tool SYNOPSIS
dns-cfg [--option ...] DESCRIPTION
Given a zone name, DNS names, and IP addresses, dns-cfg builds configuration suitable for use with BIND and, perhaps, other DNS servers. Dns-cfg output consists of three parts. The first part is the text to cut-and-paste into BIND's named.conf file. This part is sent to the standard output. The outer two parts are direct and reverse zone files. Those may be quite large and are dumped on disk into the appropri- ately named files. Dns-cfg can use PGL configuration as the source of information. OPTIONS
--help list of options --version package version info --config <filename> PGL configuration --cfg_dirs <dirs> directories for PGL #includes --zone <str> zone name --addresses <str> IP addresses --names <str> domain names COPYRIGHT
