I thought, I would reply to this myself . Unless, any one of you have found
other wise, Turns out, you need to change the "maximum log size" setting as
well when you change the "overwrite" property. If you do so, it will retain
the changes. But, if you just change the "overwrite" options, it doesn't
retain it. This is only TRUE if you create your own "source" and "log".
