See http://support.microsoft.com/?id=810076.
At the Add Group step, key (or Browse to) the name of the Domain group you
want to added to the local group.
Then use only the "This group is a member" of part, click Add and key the
name of the Local Group you want the Domain Group added to on the targetted
computers. You can not "Browse" to the local group, but you can key the
name.
Don't put anything in the "Members of this group" box. Use AD Users and
Computers to populate the Domain Group.

It is perfectly useless to know the right answer to the wrong question.
