Local means locally on the client machine. You can have etnries in 
kaddressbook independently from the LDAP system, in fact you even have to 
copy LDAP entries in your client addressbook, if you want to use your 
addressbook application with a little more comfort. :-(

It's the usual "serch" icon in the toolbar.

Use the toolbar button, and it will work. Alternativly you might use Mozilla 
addressbook for a test.
