The '-X' option will run the daemon as an AgentX subagent, connecting to
another SNMP master agent.   If there isn't one, then this will fail...

... as indeed it does.


The fact that the agent doesn't understand "rocommunity" is worrying as well.
How did you run "configure" ?
   A plain  "./configure ; make ; make install" should build a default agent,
which *would* understand these directives.

So either you're not running the expected version of "snmpd", or it failed
to pick up the standard build environment.
