Did you add the LONG namespace to the volume?  Just loading
LONG.NAM doesn't do much.  Syntax is:

ADD NAMESPACE LONG TO 

Do not put a semicolon after .

You may also have to restart your workstation, as a minimum
you will have to logout and login again.  DOS/Win/WinXX
needs to see that drive letter as supporting long names and
it only checks when psuedo-mounting the drive at login. 
DOS/Win/WinXX may cache this info, therefore you may need to
reboot.
