The should be a tool to assist with this. I installed from source so my conf file is /usr/local/share/snmp/snmpd.conf but your might be under /usr/local/etc there should be a script that was installed to help with config - I just cannot remember what it is called, a search on the snmpd home page might reveal some more clues.
