WordPress 3 – duplicate sites possible

Hi there,

I am working on a car rental site and each branch has its own mini-site. These are setup as sub-folders. They have the very similar pages and structure.

Is there a way to “rubber stamp” the sites out quickly from a master site so the child sites are exactly the same to begin with?

E.g same page content and same theme.

I can see in the database that there is a new row added to the “wp_blogs” table and obviously the 9 new tables with prefixes, so guess I can start there, but if there is an automated way I’m all ears.
