I've solved my problem.

snmpd provides the -u and -g command line switches. After startup, it will
switch to the userid and groupid provided. It's dynamic config files will
be created and accessed using this user and group.

To enable remote configuration, I needed to be able to run net-snmp-config
from an account other than root.
