You need to setup a wildcard subdomain. Basically, anything.mysite.com will resolve to mysite.com. At that point it's up to your code to kick in and serve up the proper content depending on what subdomain the user is looking at.

You can't do this unless you have permission to alter the DNS server for your domain.
