Actually, use 'ncecat' then 'ncwa'.

netcdf one {
dimensions:
       time = UNLIMITED ; // (2 currently)
       lat = 2 ;
       lon = 2 ;
variables:
       float lat(lat) ;
       float lon(lon) ;
       float wind(time, lat, lon) ;
data:

lat = 2.2, 3.3 ;

lon = 4.4, 5.5 ;

wind
 1, 2,
 3, 4,
 5, 6,
 7, 8 ;
}
netcdf one {
dimensions:
       time = 2 ;
       lat = 2 ;
       lon = 2 ;
variables:
       float lat(lat) ;
       float lon(lon) ;
       float wind(time, lat, lon) ;

// global attributes:

data:

lat = 2.2, 3.3 ;

lon = 4.4, 5.5 ;

wind
 1, 2,
 3, 4,
 5, 6,
 7, 8 ;
}

Is there a utility to copy an existing netCDF file with an UNLIMITED
