.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.sp
Nagios Config File Converter, written by Ethan Galstad (egalstad@nagios\&.org)\&.
.sp
This utility is designed to aide you in converting your old 'host' config file(s) to the new template-based config file style\&. It is also capable of converting extended host and service information definitions in your old CGI config file\&.
.sp
Supply the name of your old 'host' config file (or your old CGI config file if you're converting extended host/service definitions) on the command line, along with the type of object you would like to produce a new config file for\&.  Your old config file is not overwritten - new configuration data is printed to standard output, so you can redirect it wherever you like\&.
.sp
Please note that you can only specify one type of object at a time on the command line\&.
.sp
IMPORTANT: This utility will generate Nagios 1\&..x compliant config files\&. However, the config files are not totally compatible with Nagios 2\&.x, so you will have to do some manual tweaking\&.
