Im trying to figure out how to redirect people who come on to my site by there city.

Example:

Joe User from Dallas, Texas goes to www.mydomain.com and they are redirected to a dallas, TX webpage

Jane Doe from Atlanta, GA, gotes to www.mydomain.com and they are redirected to a atlanta, ga website

 

Is this possible in DNN, and if so how? Are there any modules that do this?

There are tools to convert and IP address into a location.  So, you could write a custom module that looks up the user's location and then does something with it.  If I'm not being clear, google "ip to location."  The "doing something with it" part would likely require a custom module.

The SmartSocial UserProfile module has a LocationSearch function but it's not quite what you want. When you first visit it it drills down by your profile info, so if you had the Country, region and city set it would show all users from there (it only does this once per session so that you can drill back out). You can search for poker players by location here. You can drill down by a users location.
