What is the difference between a public and a private server?

can they both be accessed by the public if it is in the interest of the admin of the server?

[Noport]

A public allows others outside of your network to connect to your server. must use eqemulator.net:5998 to connect to the server must have a LS account first setup a Ls account here http://www.eqemulator.org/forums/profile.php?do=loginserver this will allow you to connect to other servers listed http://www.eqemulator.org/index.php?pageid=serverlist . I would recommend you use EQEmuLoginServer.exe if setting up a public server. A private allows only people on your local network to connect to your server.
