The daemon is up and has been up for a long time. In fact, when I made these
changes to sshd_config, for instance as a test maxauthtries to 3 I also
reloaded it during a ssh terminal session. After which I logged back in and
as a test, purposely errored the tries; it still defaulted to 6 despite the
sshd_config file change and reloading.
when I say I get no message I mean to state as such:
$/etc/rc.d/sshd status <--carriage return
$ <--no message after return.
Thanks Pete.

Your PAM config may be overriding SSH's config (For the ignoring
MaxAuthTries option). It sometimes does that, depending on how the
login type is set up in the sshd_config file. Check your PAM config
