Copy user customizations

Hello,

I have a group of users with priveliged rights on my portal.
For this group I have build a user "Master". As portal admin I have
managed the portal of the user "Master". This means, I have edit
the navigation and add some portlets on his portal.
This work was very time-killing!

Every other user of the group should see the same portal-configuration
when he initialy logs in. But I don't have the time and I can't be botherd to do this configuration stuff
for every user again.

So, I would like to know if it is possible to copy&paste the portal-configuration of
the "Master"-user for every other user? Where is this configuration saved for "Master"? Is there any file available?

Best regards,
Hans

OK.

After reading some documentation  i've found out
that I can configurate under Admin/Organization/Management/Group/TheGroup/Community Config
the front page for members of the group and the navigation.

BUT...
Pre-configure the front page for any user of the group is not enough. I would appreciate if the
configuration for every navigation page could be copied too. For example, the "Master" user has two pages:
Home and Reports. On the "Home" page there are some management summaries which should be displayed
for every user of "Master"s group. On the "Report" site "Master" has some reports that are displayed.

After configuring the "Community Config" the users of "Master"s group could all see the management summary after logging in.
But when they navigate to the "Report" site all they can find is an empty page

How to handle this problem?

Best regards,
Hans
