Yes it is.
The agent will look for the files:
snmpd.conf
snmpd.local.conf
and
snmp.conf
snmp.local.conf
in *each* of the directories on the config search path.
Most of these files won't exist, so it doesn't complain about
any missing files. But the debug output that I had Daniel
enable will chatter away about what it's doing - hence the
messages above.

Yes you do.

The *recommendation* is that the 'createUser' line be in /var/net-snmp
(so that it can be replaced by an equivalent 'usmUser' line when the
persistent file is re-written). But it works equally well with 'createUser'
in one of the other config files - I use that all the time for agent
development and testing.
The 'rwuser' statement should *not* be in /var/net/snmpd.conf.
The ONLY directives that should be explicitly put in this file are
'createUser' settings. Otherwise, this file should not be touched.
