.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
This program reads the given ipsec\&.conf style configuration file, interpreting the also= options, and outputs an equivalent ipsec\&.conf file\&. The purpose of this program is to validate the input processing\&. This can also be used to validate the syntax of a configuration file\&.
.PP
The options \-\-debug and \-\-verbose are currently synonyms\&.
.PP
The \-\-rootdir option changes the programs idea of what "/" is when processing include directives\&. This is useful when validating a configuration that is not installed on a target system yet\&.
