server {
listen (my server ip):80;
server_name ^(.[^\.]+)(\.)(\d+)\.vm\.example\.net$;
location / {
return 200 '$2';
add_header Content-Type text/plain;
}
}
what i am trying to do is capture any of the following domains
example1.1234.vm.example.net
example1.1234.vm.example.net
example2.4321.vm.example.net
example2.4321.vm.example.net
and i want to be able to use the number it got in the return right now its not even matching the server name and showing anything.

that marks the server_name as a regular expression.Documentation here
