I tested the server_name directive and it works. The usage of _ is a little bit annoying, could it be fixed in future ?

Tested example in file nginx.conf.default :

server { listen 80; # server_name test.*; # does not work ! server_name _ test.*; # works fine location / { root html; index test.html; } }

The first server name should not be wildcard, because HTTP/1.0 request may be done without "host" header and when nginx will return redirect /dir -> /dir/ it using first server_name.

I can allow

server_name *.example.com;

but nginx should warn about it.
