I have a couple of urls that point to my main domain. My domain is the only thing that has content. What will Google do in regards to having information on (2) differnt urls but both are the same.

Pleaser clarify what you mean by
having information on (2) differnt urls but both are the same

Do you mean that both URL's have identical content within each site?

No, I have my primary domain where all of my content is located. I have (2) other urls pointing to that domain. Both of the urls pointing at my primary domain do not have any content.

If I go to url 1, do I SEE something different than if I go to url 2 or 3?

No you see the same thing. Main domain is www.abc.com if you type www.def.com you see www.abc.com in your address window and the content is coming from www.abc.com if you type www.ghi.com you see www.abc.com in address window and content is coming from www.abc.com.

Hope that makes sense!

sounds like the other URLs are already on a 301 permanent redirect. If that is the case then you should be fine.

If it is not the case then you do risk being banned. Happened to me (I think). Anyhow one of two URLs disappeared from the index and it was the one I wanted.

When I put the 301 on the other one, back to the one that had been dropped ( and also wrote to google to explain ) I was returned to the index under my preferred URL.

Lots of info in other threads here on how to effect 301s and what they are...
