This creates a user called "admin"

This tells the agent to use a user called "AES"

These two lines must agree.

Try starting the agent manually:

   snmpd -f -Le

That should at least show you any error messages or other output.

What about the other logs in /var/log ?
What does
    grep snmp /var/log/messages
        show, for example?
