You do not have to worry about that. That is just a warning. dos2unix will assume that you have a US style keyboard and go ahead with the file conversion to unix format. And since you are using Solaris, you do not need to worry about that '>' redirection stuff either.
This will take input from the filename specified and provide the output in the same file.
