Login failed for user 'abc'

When we get the error message stated in the subject , does it mean that the
password was incorrect ?
Trying to find out other possible reasons when you may get that message.
I do not believe one would get that message if the server is unavailable
right ? I believe the error in that case is more of a General Network Error
Please let me know

Or Login's name. Or Authentication issue.

You can set up an authenication to Windows ONLY or Mixed (Windows/SQL
Server). If you have Windows Only and try to connect by using a login who
does not exist or exists only in SQL Server you will get an error.
