I note that you are still using security = share.  Do you have a strong reason 
for that?  I recommended security = user, as that would protect your shares 
from accidental damage by others, except where you specifically allow them 
(for instance, on our home LAN I rule that no-one should put original work 
into a public directory, only a copy of the original).

Security = share means that samba gets to know who you are, and therefore your 
users get the rights that they would have on the samba server accounts.  The 
public directory, because you have declared it to be public, will be open to 
all, without authentication.

Apart from that, when you've made the changes, do a 'service smb restart' in a 
root console, then try to access the shared directories from the remote box - 
both your /home and the public one.  Then go back to the server and look at 
the samba log - you will have a log for each machine that has attempted an 
access.  Give us anything in the log that is from the time when you made the 
attempts.
