Its been a while since I set up FTP, but, is this "public" folder a subfolder of 
another FTP Virtual Directory? 

I can not remember exactly now about these things, but you can create multiple virtual 
directories on the FTP server.. For instance, ftp://ipaddress/public, or ftp://ipaddress/adminsonly

These directories are only virtual directories created within the FTP server, and 
they actually point to a physical location on the local hard drive.. In the FTP server 
you can set what permissions are given on that virtual directory.. So, make sure 
that the necessary NTFS permissions are set for the "public" folder, like it sounds 
like you've done.. Then create a virtual directory on the FTP server called "public" 
to point to the "public" folder and give read and write access to it, or whatever.

Then you should be able to access it with ftp://ipaddress/public  (By the way, theres 
no reason that shouldn't work from your office also.. So keep me posted on your other 
thread..)

Again, it's been a while, so work with me here.. :)
