Why did you never try to just enter the dos command on the os/2 command 
ne??
Every dos-program entered in the os2 command line just runs fine provided you 
have 
a. virtual dos installed, or 
b. start up a dos machine from within os2. 
   I have dos on primary partition c: and
   OS/2 on extended partition d:
   The settings of the dos object are:
   DOS_AUTOEXEC     c:\autoexec.bat
   DOS_SHELL        c:\dos\command.com
   DOS_STARTUP_DRIVE  c:
There are more possibilities, but these are the one I use.
