You can do this with NT Server as well. It is called Distributed File
System (DFS). You may have to download it from Microsoft but it is free. I
think it is built into Win 2000. You will have to muck around in the
documentation for the details.

Subject: Re: mySQL databases over two drives
This isn't awfully useful to you, but it's dead easy to do this on a Unix
system. All you do is copy the data over wherever you like (to a big, fat,
drive), and then link the new directory from the /usr/local/mysql/data/
directory ("ln -s").
OTOH, I guess you can't link a file/directory in Windows/DOS.
