Newbie question,

I've made a change to /etc/ssh/sshd_config

such as #MaxAuthTries 6 to MaxAuthTries 3

afterwards I /etc/rc.d/sshd reload as user root

the change did not propagate? Any ideas? Am I doing this correctly? Also
when I run:

/etc/rc.d/sshd status

I do not get any feedback. Am I editing the correct file?

Thanks

-Huy
