if you're on unix, maybe use the exec() function or backticks and just manually move the file(s) over, be sure to use escapeShellCmd()
or maybe the copy() function

I am on a Linux system, and I am really stuck. It's probably really simple.

Why yes it is very simple, just use chdir() to get to the dir containhing the file you want to move then use copy($thefile, $destdir);
Where $destdir is set to something like
"/www/files/yourfile.php"
Make sure to include the filename of the destination file where you want to copy it to
