NAME
       dropbearconvert - convert between Dropbear and OpenSSH private key for‐
       mats

SYNOPSIS
       dropbearconvert input_type output_type input_file output_file

DESCRIPTION
       Dropbear and OpenSSH SSH implementations	 have  different  private  key
       formats.	 dropbearconvert can convert between the two.

       Dropbear	 uses  the  same  SSH  public key format as OpenSSH, it can be
       extracted from a private key by using dropbearkey -y

       Encrypted private keys are not supported, use ssh-keygen(1) to  decrypt
       them first.

ARGUMENTS
       input_type
	      Either dropbear or openssh

       output_type
	      Either dropbear or openssh

       input_file
	      An existing Dropbear or OpenSSH private key file

       output_file
	      The  path	 to  write  the converted private key file. For client
	      authentication ~/.ssh/id_dropbear is loaded by default

EXAMPLE
	# dropbearconvert openssh dropbear ~/.ssh/id_rsa ~/.ssh/id_dropbear
