+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+utility accepts one or more security policies in either
+.Em sudoers
+or LDIF format as input, and generates a single
+policy of the specified format as output.
+The default input format is
+.Em sudoers.
+The default output format is LDIF.
+It is only possible to convert a policy file that is syntactically correct.
+.Pp
+If no
+.Ar input_file
+is specified, or if it is
+.Ql - ,
+the policy is read from the standard input.
+Input files may be optionally prefixed with a host name followed by a colon
+.Pq Ql :\&
+to make the policy rules specific to a host when merging multiple files.
+By default, the result is written to the standard output.
+.Pp
+The options are as follows:
+.Bl -tag -width Ds
+.It Fl b Ar dn , Fl -base Ns = Ns Ar dn
+The base DN (distinguished name) that will be used when performing
+LDAP queries.
+Typically this is of the form
+.Dq ou=SUDOers,dc=my-domain,dc=com
+for the domain my-domain.com.
+If this option is not specified, the value of the
+.Ev SUDOERS_BASE
+environment variable will be used instead.
+Only necessary when converting to LDIF format.
+.It Fl c Ar conf_file , Fl -config Ns = Ns Ar conf_file
+Specify the path to the configuration file.
+Defaults to
+.Pa @sysconfdir@/cvtsudoers.conf .
+.It Fl d Ar deftypes , Fl -defaults Ns = Ns Ar deftypes
+Only convert
+.Em Defaults
+entries of the specified types.
+One or more
+.Em Defaults
+types may be specified, separated by a comma
+.Pq Ql \&, .
+The supported types are:
+.Bl -tag -width "command"
+.It all
+All Defaults entries.
+.It global
+Global Defaults entries that are applied regardless of
+user, runas, host, or command.
+.It user
+Per-user Defaults entries.
+.It runas
+Per-runas user Defaults entries.
+.It host
+Per-host Defaults entries.
+.It command
+Per-command Defaults entries.
+.El
+.Pp
+See the
+.Sy Defaults
+section in
+.Xr sudoers @mansectform@
+for more information.
+.Pp
+If the
+.Fl d
+option is not specified, all
+.Em Defaults
+entries will be converted.
+.It Fl e , Fl -expand-aliases
+Expand aliases in
+.Ar input_file .
+Aliases are preserved by default when the output
+.Ar format
+is JSON or sudoers.
+.It Fl f Ar output_format , Fl -output-format Ns = Ns Ar output_format
+Specify the output format (case-insensitive).
+The following formats are supported:
+.Bl -tag -width "sudoers"
+.It CSV
+CSV (comma-separated value) files are often used by spreadsheets
+and report generators.
+See
+.Sx CSV output format
+for more details.
+.It JSON
+JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) files are usually easier for
+third-party applications to consume than the traditional
+.Em sudoers
+format.
+The various values have explicit types which removes much of the
+ambiguity of the
+.Em sudoers
+format.
+See
+.Sx JSON output format
+for more details.
+.It LDIF
+LDIF (LDAP Data Interchange Format) files can be imported into an LDAP
+server for use with
+.Xr sudoers.ldap @mansectform@ .
+.Pp
+Conversion to LDIF has the following limitations:
+.Bl -bullet -width 1n
+.It
+Command, host, runas, and user-specific Defaults lines cannot be
+translated as they don't have an equivalent in the sudoers LDAP schema.
+.It
+Command, host, runas, and user aliases are not supported by the
+sudoers LDAP schema so they are expanded during the conversion.
+.El
+.It sudoers
+Traditional sudoers format.
+A new sudoers file will be reconstructed from the parsed input file.
+Comments are not preserved and data from any include files will be
+output inline.
+.El
+.It Fl -group-file Ns = Ns Ar file
+When the
+.Fl M
+option is also specified, perform group queries using
+.Ar file
+instead of the system group database.
+.It Fl h , Fl -help
+Display a short help message to the standard output and exit.
+.It Fl i Ar input_format , Fl -input-format Ns = Ns Ar input_format
+Specify the input format.
+The following formats are supported:
+.Bl -tag -width "sudoers"
+.It LDIF
+LDIF (LDAP Data Interchange Format) files can be exported from an LDAP
+server to convert security policies used by
+.Xr sudoers.ldap @mansectform@ .
+If a base DN (distinguished name) is specified, only sudoRole objects
+that match the base DN will be processed.
+Not all sudoOptions specified in a sudoRole can be translated from
+LDIF to sudoers format.
+.It sudoers
+Traditional sudoers format.
+This is the default input format.
+.El
+.It Fl I Ar increment , Fl -increment Ns = Ns Ar increment
+When generating LDIF output, increment each sudoOrder attribute by
+the specified number.
+Defaults to an increment of 1.
+.It Fl l Ar log_file , Fl -logfile Ns = Ns Ar log_file
+Log conversion warnings to
+.Ar log_file
+instead of to the standard error.
+This is particularly useful when merging multiple
+.Em sudoers
+files, which can generate a large number of warnings.
+.It Fl m Ar filter , Fl -match Ns = Ns Ar filter
+Only output rules that match the specified
+.Ar filter .
+A
+.Ar filter
+expression is made up of one or more
+.Sy key = Ar value
+pairs, separated by a comma
+.Pq Ql \&, .
+The
+.Sy key
+may be
+.Dq cmnd
+.Pq or Dq cmd ,
+.Dq host ,
+.Dq group ,
+or
+.Dq user .
+For example,
+.Sy user No = Ar operator
+or
+.Sy host No = Ar www .
+An upper-case
+.Em Cmnd_Alias ,
+.Em Host_alias ,
+or
+.Em User_Alias
+may be specified as the
+.Dq cmnd ,
+.Dq host ,
+or
+.Dq user .
+.Pp
+A matching
+.Em sudoers
+rule may also include users, groups, and hosts that are not part of the
+.Ar filter .
+This can happen when a rule includes multiple users, groups, or hosts.
+To prune out any non-matching user, group, or host from the rules, the
+.Fl p
+option may be used.
+.Pp
+By default, the password and group databases are not consulted when matching
+against the filter so the users and groups do not need to be present
+on the local system (see the
+.Fl M
+option).
+Only aliases that are referenced by the filtered policy rules will
+be displayed.
+.It Fl M , Fl -match-local
+When the
+.Fl m
+option is also specified, use password and group database information
+when matching users and groups in the filter.
+Only users and groups in the filter that exist on the local system will match,
+and a user's groups will automatically be added to the filter.
+If the
+.Fl M
+is
+.Em not
+specified, users and groups in the filter do not need to exist on the
+local system, but all groups used for matching must be explicitly listed
+in the filter.
+.It Fl o Ar output_file , Fl -output Ns = Ns Ar output_file
+Write the converted output to
+.Ar output_file .
+If no
+.Ar output_file
+is specified, or if it is
+.Ql - ,
+the converted
+.Em sudoers
+policy will be written to the standard output.
+.It Fl O Ar start_point , Fl -order-start Ns = Ns Ar start_point
+When generating LDIF output, use the number specified by
+.Ar start_point
+in the sudoOrder attribute of the first sudoRole object.
+Subsequent sudoRole object use a sudoOrder value generated by adding an
+.Ar increment ,
+see the
+.Fl I
+option for details.
+Defaults to a starting point of 1.
+A starting point of 0 will disable the generation of sudoOrder
+attributes in the resulting LDIF file.
+.It Fl -passwd-file Ns = Ns Ar file
+When the
+.Fl M
+option is also specified, perform passwd queries using
+.Ar file
+instead of the system passwd database.
+.It Fl p , Fl -prune-matches
+When the
+.Fl m
+option is also specified,
+.Nm
+will prune out non-matching users, groups, and hosts from
+matching entries.
+.It Fl P Ar padding , Fl -padding Ns = Ns Ar padding
+When generating LDIF output, construct the initial sudoOrder value by
+concatenating
+.Ar order_start
+and
+.Ar increment ,
+padding the
+.Ar increment
+with zeros until it consists of
+.Ar padding
+digits.
+For example, if
+.Ar order_start
+is 1027,
+.Ar padding
+is 3, and
+.Ar increment
+is 1, the value of sudoOrder for the first entry will be 1027000,
+followed by 1027001, 1027002, etc.
+If the number of sudoRole entries is larger than the padding would allow,
+.Nm
+will exit with an error.
+By default, no padding is performed.
+.It Fl s Ar sections , Fl -suppress Ns = Ns Ar sections
+Suppress the output of specific
+.Ar sections
+of the security policy.
+One or more section names may be specified, separated by a comma
+.Pq Ql \&, .
+The supported section name are:
+.Sy defaults ,
+.Sy aliases
+and
+.Sy privileges
+(which may be shortened to
+.Sy privs ) .
+.It Fl V , -version
+Print the
+.Nm
+and
+.Em sudoers
+grammar versions and exit.
+.El
+.Ss Merging multiple files
+When multiple input files are specified,
+.Nm
+will attempt to merge them into a single policy file.
+It is assumed that user and group names are consistent among
+the policy files to be merged.
+For example, user
+.Dq bob
+on one host is the same as user
+.Dq bob
+on another host.
+.Pp
+When merging policy files, it is possible to prefix the input file name
+with a host name, separated by a colon
+.Pq Ql :\& .
+When the files are merged, the host name will be used to restrict
+the policy rules to that specific host where possible.
+.Pp
+The merging process is performed as follows:
+.Bl -bullet -width 1n
+.It
+Each input file is parsed into internal sudoers data structures.
+.It
+Aliases are merged and renamed as necessary to avoid conflicts.
+In the event of a conflict, the first alias found is left as-is and
+subsequent aliases of the same name are renamed with a numeric suffix
+separated with a underscore
+.Pq Ql _ .
+For example, if there are two different aliases named
+.Dv SERVERS ,
+the first will be left as-is and the second will be renamed
+.Dv SERVERS_1 .
+References to the renamed alias are also updated in the policy file.
+Duplicate aliases (those with identical contents) are pruned.
+.It
+Defaults settings are merged and duplicates are removed.
+If there are conflicts in the Defaults settings, a warning is emitted for
+each conflict.
+If a host name is specified with the input file,
+.Nm
+will change the global Defaults settings in that file to be host-specific.
+A warning is emitted for command, user, or runas-specific Defaults settings
+which cannot be made host-specific.
+.It
+Per-user rules are merged and duplicates are removed.
+If a host name is specified with the input file,
+.Nm
+will change rules that specify a host name of
+.Sy ALL
+to the host name associated with the policy file being merged.
+The merging of rules is currently fairly simplistic but will be
+improved in a later release.
+.El
+.Pp
+It is possible to merge policy files with differing formats.
+.Ss The cvtsudoers.conf file
+Options in the form
+.Dq keyword = value
+may also be specified in a configuration file,
+.Pa @sysconfdir@/cvtsudoers.conf
+by default.
+The following keywords are recognized:
+.Bl -tag -width 4n

+See the description of the
+.Fl d
+command line option.
+.It Sy expand_aliases = Ar yes | no
+See the description of the

+command line option.
+.It Sy suppress = Ar sections
+See the description of the
+.Fl s
+command line option.
+.El
+.Pp
+Options on the command line will override values from the
+configuration file.
+.Ss JSON output format
+The
+.Em sudoers
+JSON format may contain any of the following top-level objects:
+.Bl -tag -width 4n
+.It Defaults
+An array of objects, each containing an
+.Em Options
+array and an optional
+.Em Binding
+array.
+.Pp
+The
+.Em Options
+array consists of one or more objects, each containing a
+.Dq name:value
+pair that corresponds to a
+.Em sudoers
+.Em Defaults
+setting.
+.Em Options
+that operate on a list will also include an

+entry in the object, with a value of
+.Dq list_assign
+for
+.Ql = ,
+.Dq list_add
+for
+.Ql += ,
+or

+for
+.Ql -= .
+.Pp
+The optional
+.Em Binding
+array consists of one or more objects, each containing a
+.Dq name:value
+pair and an optional
