Wildcard Domain Restriction

Is it possible to add a wildcard for a domain name restriction?
For example, I want to restrict only users from a certain domain to access
the site but they may be coming from many subdomains.
Such as www1.mysite.com, www2.mysite.com, www3.mysite.com, etc.
I would like to enter *.mysite.com
Is this possible? The source users may have dozens of subdomains and may
add them regularly and I don't want to have to keep updating the server when
this happens.

Re: Wildcard Domain Restriction

I found out by trial and error that *.mysite.com works.
It just isn't documented anywhere. It would be nice if the help or
knowledge base would just say what is acceptable in a field, trial and error
isn't a good way to find stuff out when you are dealing with a live web
site.

Mmm.. I remembered I wrote it somewhere before....
but this is supported, yet bare in mind - there will be certain overhead
when IIS is try to resolve the visiting IP to domain name.
