Yes, you can check the subdomain the app is accessed from using request.subdomains

But if you are going to do something more advanced you should probably use subdomain-fu

I don't see any reason why you couldn't have a subdomain of a subdomain being used in a rails app.

You'll want to setup a wildcard A record in your domain DNS and configure your http server to accept wildcard server aliases.

Then in your application_controller you'll probably want a before_filter that does some juju with

request.host

to do whatever you want, be it

Account.find_by_domain(parsed_request_host) or whatever.
