It's not complaining about "snmpconf".
It's complaining about the file 'snmpd.conf'
    (which may well not exist in any of the specified locations)

Without a valid snmpd.conf file (including suitable access control settings)
the agent will not provide any information at all.

This snmpd.conf file is simply a text file - you can create it using your
favourite text editor.  One possibility is to use "snmpconf", as suggested
in this error message.  But this is not strictly necessary.
   The simplest approach is just to create a text file containing

     rocommunity public

(or your preferred community string), and this would be sufficient to
get the agent working again.


I'll leave the windows/perl issues to someone with more knowledge
and time.
