Sorry to sound so dim (as I'm sure this does to anyone who just knows), 
but aren't the commands I have used about finding out what the current 
settings are? It doesn't tell me how to change them.

I'm smart enough (just :-) ) to change swap backend for frontend in the 
commands I ran. My problem is that I have no free time for Myth in the 
next couple of days and in the mean time frontend logs are filling up my 
system to bursting point. I'd like to turn them off for the time being.

Cheers
Damian
