Adding Directories Outside The DocRoot!

ok i've been trying to add directories hosted outside my docroot in apache, but no luck, i have files on drive X:/ and on that particular drive, is car movies.

i want to be able to add the x:/ to my directories so when i type in the extention http://mysite/carvideos/ it will pull it up instead of giving me page not found error.

i've read the apache add direcotories and so forth and it's all over my head, so if someone who's actually done this be kind enough to help a lost man out.

thanks in advance

Add this to either .htaccess, or to httpd.conf


Alias /carvideos/ "x:/car movies"

<Directory "X:/car movies">
Options -FollowSymLinks -SymLinksIfOwnerMatch -Indexes
Order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from all
</Directory>

where in the httpd.conf does this go. do i need to add something to the htaccess file as well? also i'm on a windows 2000 machine.

i added it to my htacess file and i am now getting forbidden you don't have access to this file on the server, what gives, i thought i fixed everything right, but i guess not.

Just use the httpd.conf file then.
search for "Alias /" and put your lines near that one.

thanks for the help it worked like a charm again thanks for the help man
