SMB (i.e. MSCLIENT and Samba) were designed for this use case.
What makes you think so? Concurrent access to files is something
already handled by SHARE even in non-networked DOS contexts, so
it would not be surprising at all if DOSEMU2 supports this :-)

Actually the question is more exciting than I thought:

Thanks to Stas for the pointer to this Stackoverflow thread :-)
Well, the short and gritty is that there is no OS beside DOS and (to
some degree) Windows have proper record locking, on both Linux and
macOS, it is pretty much non-existent, in any universally usable
approach. I am currently dealing with a programming project of mine
where I have to pretty much change all my record locking code even for
Windows and completely omit it in the Linux and macOS versions.
