Mostly it means that the login name and the password on this system must differ substantially.
Are you using a password same as the username or the current password?
Try another password.

Regards

If you are particular about having the password same as the user name, you can explore user settings in sam. I do not remember the exact parameter to change, and I don't have a HP-UX system with me now to check.
