running agentx sub-agent as non root

   I am having problem running agentx subagent as a non-root user. I
went through some earlier discussion on this in the mailing list where
we talk about tweaking the permission of /var/agentx/master. Isn't there
a way to specify it in the config so that I can make it work as a
non-root user. 
  I tried by giving the -x option while running snmpd. In this case, how
to make sub-agent aware of the port where master is running. It seems
that init_agent call by default takes a fixed value for port of master
agent and it can't be changed using configuration.

Thanks,
Sachin
