quick question: how to set *.domainname.com url in django

I know there are lots of example for how to set http://domainname.com/username url. But how to set http://username.domainname.com url in django?

Thinking a way to have a unique url for each user as http://username.domain.com like http://garry.posterous.com/

Thanks

As the first step, you need to arrange your DNS server to serve the wildcard domain; this is completely outside Django.

When you managed to do that (i.e. dig garry.posterous.com succeeds), then simply check for the HTTP_HOST request variable in the django view routines.
