No - that's not correct.
The -Lf option *requires* a file to be specified
(and is probably trying to log to a file called "-DmyAgent")

The filename being optional is referring to the old '-l' option
(and may no longer hold anyway - I'd need to check).

I'll look at tweaking the documentation to clarify this.

Specify the logging file explicitly:

   ./snmpd -Lf /var/log/snmpd.log  -DmyAgent
