Thanks. (I doubt the VMS ftp server would care about NAT, it's not something the system behind a NAT knows or should care about. It's the NAT router who have to do all the work   )

Usually, but it depends on the protocol.   Some protocols     FTP is a notorious example     carry addresses and/or port numbers inside the application protocol data.

Does this server support passive mode?   A lot of NAT servers need passive mode for FTP to work, or work more reliably if you use passive mode.   (I just like passive mode because it isn   t quite so conceptually broken as the older mode of FTP.)
