No.  I see no reason that it would have worked before at all.  The only 
thing that I can think of is that you were not DNATing with in the same 
subnet such that your traffic was routed back through the router where 
it would unDNAT it any way, much like MASQUERADing / SNAT does out to 
the internet (remember that MASQUERADing / SNATing is only so that 
systems on the net have a route back to your client).
