I would like to have several domains all pointing their DNS to one DNN site with multiple domain aliases to match the incoming domains.  I don't want a child or parent portal as I want each domain to share in the same content and related database tables.  I do want the skin and banner image to change depending on the incoming domain URL.  Is there a module or way to accomplish this?

From SEO perspective, using same content in multiple domains is not good for search engine ranking. however, if this is not relevant for you, you may create a skin that varies based on the domain used.

Take a look at creating SkinObjects.  You can get a lot done dynamically with these.  You could also modify a copy of the Banner module.  I have done accomplished these sorts of request for clients before, so I know that it is achievable.

The SEO point is a valid one but there sure is not a SEO consensus on the whole duplicate content issue but there is one main domain I would not want to risk penalizing. As such it may be possible to link to one domain name only in the URL as long as it reads the incoming URL and changes the skin to match. So domain A links to domain B and domain B changes its skin to match Domain A while client is browsing. So maybe the URL domain changed but it was transparent to the user as the skin colors and banner did not. Again if domain C links to domain B, domain b reads the incoming URL and loads a different skin/banner. I assume there is not a known module to accomplish this? What kind of job are we talking about to create one?
