If this is the zone database file for bar.net then perhaps the last RR 
should be:


test.foo        IN      A       192.168.1.3


Also, the first RR for localhost is probably not required.


By the way, what is the exact error you are getting that indicates named 
is not loading the zone?

Also, you may want to post your actual zone db file.
