I do awk for *fun*.... <g>

Of course it didn't work. I've never worked with nginx, so I could only
base it on what I found. With a file like that, I'd write
{
   if ( found == 1 && NF == 1 ) {
      if ( $1 ~ /}/ ) {
         found = 0;
      }
      else {
         print $1;
      }
   }
   else {
     if ( $1 ~ /server_name$/ && $2 ~ /{/ ) {
        found = 1;
     }
   }
}
