No, not that I'm aware of. There's DOSLFN and LFNDOS and a project from
Victor Vlasenko but that's all local without network support.

For network support the network client needs to hook int21/ah=71
(the DOS lfn interface) itself. The documented undocumented network
redirector interface can only deal with short file names.
