Did you wait for the records to time out of the cache? A "forward" zone is not a zone in the RFC 1034 sense. It it a namespace where the nameserver does not follow the normal resolution path. If you want cr.test.com to see the change make "test.com" a slave zone and list cr.test.com as a nameserver for the zone. That way the notifation process will know to send NOTIFY messages to it.
