 Unable to copy hidden (dot) files from remote shared server (Linux)
 to local machine (OSX).

Evaluating `(tramp-do-copy-or-rename-file 'copy filename new-filename t t t)` is working well on all individual files, including `.www.my.cnf`.

`dired-do-copy` is working well on all individual files, and on multiple marked files.

However, `dired-do-copy` cannot handle any remote directory on the remote server with files inside it.  Placing the cursor on any directory on the remote server and issuing the command `dired-do-copy` results in only that folder being copied to the local machine, but noting inside it gets copied over.
