unable to copy dot prefixed files to Apache powered WebDAV shares - Siteminder is the culprit

so i found the culprit for this mysterious behavior - it is the
Siteminder module. If I disable the Siteminder module then I can
read/write files that have a filename prefixed with a dot (e.g: .temp
.pine etc)
However I don't know how to resolve the issue without disabling the
siteminder module
Any siteminder employee/guru on the list?
Thanks
