Odi's LFN Tools has LFN versions of dir, copy, mkdir, rmdir, ren, cd,
del, etc i.e., LDIR LCD LCHK LDEL LREN LCOPY LMD LRD.  These should
allow you to see and correct the LFNs, or at least find out what is
wrong so you can fix it.  IIRC, these do not need DOSLFN to work.

Odi's LFN Tools are now hosted on Sourceforge.  The "current" version
is 1.79 (circa 2006).  lfn-1.79.zip has source.  lfn-1.79-en.zip has
English binaries.  It appears that they also provide German binaries.

Anyway, they're worth a look:
