Duplicating settings for a second account

I created a second user on my computer. I would like to use the same settings
for this user account as I do for the primary account. I would also like
future changes with the primary to be reflected in the secondary account. I
want my existing data to remain where it is.

When I tried to use the copy routine as described in the link, certain
settings didn't seem to copy like the wallpaper, the quick launch toolbar and
some other things. Should I have expected this new user to be exactly the
same as the original user?
