how can I configure Nginx restrict to thousands of different server_name without creating thousands of external config files or writing a very long server_name line ?
Indeed, I would like Nginx be a reverse-proxy only for server1.com, server2.com, etc…
The best solution for me would be to have a single external config file containing my restricted server_names : server1.com, server2.com, etc…
Is it possible ?
Ok, thank you for your answers, it works without reg. expressions. Just a big server_name list as explained by kolbijack.
Thx.

You can put the server_name directive in a file all by itself and then just include it from your server block:
The server_names file just needs server_name at the top and ; at the bottom to be a valid directive.
