a)  If you're using SNMPv3, then you don't need "-c public".
     SNMPv3 does not use communities - it uses usernames instead.

b)  Command-line options (e.g. "-u mynetwork") must come *BEFORE* the
destination host ("localhost")

If that's the full snmpd.conf file, then you do not appear to have
created an SNMPv3 user "mynetwork".   You need a "createUser" entry
for any SNMPv3 user you wish to use.

Please see README/snmpv3 for further details.
