Are you saying that you have now turned off password authentication on the 
server?

Are you saying that you have,

PasswordAuthentication no

set on the server in /etc/ssh/sshd_config?

If this is the case, and if you've been using keys for authentication it  can 
mean that you've changed the permissions of user bobg ~/.ssh.  It should be 700.

Also, the files within ~/.ssh should be owned by bobg and have 600 permissions. 
 Especially authorized_keys.
