[15:36:11 CST(-0600)] <Sam4242> I have another question about the channel: What is the difference between the 'fname' and the 'name'? (as XML tags)

[15:36:44 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> fname is a unique, url safe name used for easier direct access to a channel

[15:36:57 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> name is what the administrator sees in the admin UIs

[15:36:59 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> title is what the end user sees

[15:37:05 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> so you might have:

[15:37:15 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> title: Payroll Information

[15:37:24 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> name: Payroll Information - Students

[15:37:33 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> fname: payroll_info_students

[15:37:57 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> and then a different channel with "- Staff" and "_staff"

[15:38:10 CST(-0600)] <Sam4242> Oh, cool. Thanks!

[16:00:00 CST(-0600)] <Sam4242> Ok, I'm still having difficulties getting it to run... so, in WEBINF, what are the mandatory files? I have a 'Dashboard-portlet.xml', 'applicationContext.xml', 'log4j.xml', 'portlet.xml' and 'web.xml'

[16:00:18 CST(-0600)] <Sam4242> I think I must have one of the XML parameters incorrect somewhere
