If you want to go over the VPN with private IPs out to the public Internet,
you'll need to use a proxy server or NAT/PAT gateway -- i.e., you gotta get
things to route; nothing is special just because it's a VPN.

But, if the FTP server is on the VPN network, then my suggestion would be to
just have the FTP service listen on the VPN interface as well.
