nginx as a forward proxy (kind of)

Hi

I am very new to nginx and have a quick question.
I am using nginx to basically redirect certain websites through another
proxy. I am using DNS to resolve *.domain.com to the  IP address of
nginx server.
I am able to get it to work with www.domain.com (see sample config
below) but would like it to redirect any subdomain (wildcard) to
corresponding subdomain. Any way to do this without having a similar
config for each subdomain?



server {
listen   192.168.1.80:443;
server_name  *.domain.com;
ssl    on;
ssl_certificate    /tmp/test_cert.crt;
ssl_certificate_key    /tmp/test_cert.key;
access_log  /var/log/nginx/log/www.example.access.log  main;
error_log  /var/log/nginx/log/www.example.error.log;
location / {
proxy_pass https://www.domain.com;
}
}
