Two comments:

   a)  if you've got a "rocommunity" or "rwcommunity" line,
        there's no point in having com2sec/group/access as well

        Use one or the other - not both.

   b)  You really *DON'T* want to set a R/W community of "public"
        (unless you're happy for the whole world to meddle with your system!)

        Use "rocommunity" instead

If you want to try SET requests, then add something like

        rwcommunity   ChangeThisCommunityString

(or better - look at using SNMPv3).
But a R/W community of "public" is A Very Bad Idea!
