halflife deatmatch weapon/health cfg settings not working

I have tried changing the settings below in the game Half Life Deathmatch. I have put these settings in the server.cfg, skill.cfg, game.cfg, listenserver.cfg, and even typed a few of them in the console. I have tried it with sv_cheat enabled and disabled. I have also tried them with and without the quotation marks, not that that makes any difference. They won't work. Have any of you been able to change the default weapon/health setting in this game? Any ideas why I can't?

Ok some of them do work. The health-armor ones work, but the player damage ones don't. And many of the ones that are supposed to allow you to increase or limit ammo for certain weapons doesn't work. For example,

sk_max_smg1_grenade 5

should let me have 5 nades instead of the default 3 for the machine gun. Of if I set it for 1, it should stop nade pick up at 1 but it doesn't.

The real sad one is not being able to make the pistol and shotgun stronger, because in my opinion, they are just too weak for a DM.
