3+Open is an OS/2-based LAN Manager product that supports BOTH OS/2 and
DOS workstations.  Also, there is IBM's LAN Server product, which also
supports DOS workstations (although you need IBM's EE version of OS/2
on the server machine to run it).  The degree of compatibility between
both products is another matter.
I have not (yet) seen the original posting, but if you are looking for
an OS/2-based network OS which supports DOS workstations, any of these
products will do it.
