How do I setup a WildCard DNS on a cPanel server?

We're not just trying to make the script accessible via a single subdomain-- we want the script to be called everytime someone goes to

http://ANYTHING.domain.com

http://bob.domain.com, http://estelle.domain.com,
http://blahblah.domain.com, etc. ALL should go to the directory
that contains the bol.cgi file.

We need wildcards.

Here is a previous email that my client's programmer sent him about this issue:

Slight potential problem-- in looking at your main directory, you have a whole lot of .php files, including "index.php". In order for the virtual subdomain functions to work via BlankOL, the BlankOL system must be placed in your main directory (and this, our own index.cgi must execute by default)--

OR

You would need to have them setup Wildcards such that
www.domain.com and domain.com pointed to your regular site,
but http://EVERYTHINGELSE.domain.com would point to a subdirectory (and that's where we would install BlankOL without any worry for conflicts)



ANY IDEAS on the Wildcard?

Thanks!
