Is there a way to append the output of the ia2 utility so that all of the
inf settings go into a single audit file?

I am curious to know why you would like to that, considering the fact that
each .inf that would potentially have different set of settings or worse
similar settings with different values. If at all you end up creating one
big .audit file and then scan a remote host wouldn't it be difficult to
differentiate for which particular security template the remote host passed
or failed?  

I have 10 security templates that I would like to convert to a single audit
file, with out manually cutting and pasting the settings.

Currently there is an -d option which allows you to create all inf files in
a directory to their respective .audits. Have you tried that?

i2a.exe -d path/to/inf file directory

When I tried ia2 *.inf test.audit I get the following error  " Could not
open the INF config file at i2a.pl line 60"

Thats not correct try 

i2a.exe yourinf.inf output.audit
or
i2a.exe -d path/to/inf file directory
