unable to use sftp client

I have a client sftp client running under windows (Bitvise Tunnelier) and The server is running HPUX11i with the SSH server(openSSH) and trusted mode.
I 'm trying to use my sftp client to conncet to server and I'm choosing the password as authentification method. If the password is more then 8 chacarters the client can not connect and I have the following msg in the /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log

Re: unable to use sftp client

It seems password database settings limits max password length to 8 chars
