Forum's maillist gateway cut some characters:

----------
[affiliate].[www2].[mysite.com]/[boxoffice][what ever the string in here] this needs to be redirected to

[affiliate].[boxoffice].[www2].[mysite.com]/[boxoffice]/[what ever the string in here]
----------

became

----------
../ this needs to be redirected to

...//
----------

If you want do some generic redirect rule, then

server {
server_name affiliate.www2.mysite.com;

location ~ ^(/[^/]+) {
set $name $1;
rewrite ^ http://affiliate.$name.www2.mysite.com$request_uri?;
}
}
