loading more snmpd.conf questions

Hi

I got a question about the loading procedure of snmpd.conf files

According to the manual of snmpd_conf the snmpd.conf files are loaded accorded to the following order

"Applications will read persistent configuration files in the following order of preference:

    file in SNMP_PERSISTENT_FILE environment variable

    directories in SNMPCONFPATH environment variable

    directory defined by persistentDir snmp.conf variable

    directory in SNMP_PERSISTENT_DIR environment variable

    default /var/net-snmp directory 
"

So I understood that if in SNMPCONFPATH several different paths for a snmpd.conf are specified then each of these files will be loaded. 

Will the result of this overall configuration be a mixture of all configuration files specified in SNMPCONFPATH? It was not clear for me, when i read the manual.

If I specified v2 communities in one of these .conf files is it possible to redifine or even undifine these v2 communities by another, more specific, later loaded .conf file?

Thanks
Markus
