Hi,
We have a new partner in the US who has registered a website www.website-us.com and wants to replicate the content of our parent website. What is the best way of doing it without affecting the ranking of the parent website. and will it affect it in the first place

The safest way from the search engine perspective is to use a 301 Redirect. But then you're going to have to sort out some way to tell which traffic/sales originate from the partner site and which come directly to the main site all by themselves.
You could always set up something similar to affiliate tracking to record the initial hit coming from the partner site and set a cookie or something so that sales can be properly attributed.

Hi Randy,
Thanks for the advise. We do not want the the partner website to be found in the first place. We are using this website just to give more credibility to the partner and to get email id as name@website-us.com. Is it possible to redirect the website to the parent website without changing the URL. the site visitor will see content from the parent website but the url on the browser would still be website-us.com. Would this affect the parent's website's SERPS.

the safest way will be host the website on the same server and pointed to the same HD location, but have a robots.txt disallowing all crawlers on the root.
Using a redirect will result in the address bar reflecting the true location.

Does the code below make sense, and is it ethical.. It works though
<html>
<head>
<title>Company - United States</title>
<META name="description" content="abc, abc name="keywords" content="abc is a partner of abc">
</head>
<frameset rows="100%,*" border="0">
<frame src="http://www.microsoft.com" frameborder="0">
<frame frameborder="0" noresize>
</frameset>
</html>
<!-- m -->

It's called frame-forwarding, perfectly legit and crawlers cannot read the content inside the frame.
But it has all the drawbacks of frames, no bookmarking, printing problems and the true urls of the content site will be visible in the browsers status bar
