How did you install the software in the first place?

Which O/S?

If you've installed from source, then "make uninstall" is your best bet,
though it might not pick up everything.

If you've installed a binary package, then there ought to be a
mechanism for removing it again.   With RPM-based systems,
this would be something like
     rpm -e  net-snmp

Other packages will have different commands, but should work
broadly similarly.

It's difficult for a source-based installation to include a script to start
the agent, since different O/S's handle this in various different ways.
But have a look at 'dist/snmpd-init.d'

  Most binary packages tend to include a suitable init script for that
particular O/S.
