I presume you are running this as a non-root user?
By default, the SNMP agent will listen for requests on port 161,
which is a "privileged port". This means that only the root user
can open this port.
Either start the agent as root, or tell it to listen on a non-standard port
(e.g.
/usr/local/sbin/snmpd -f -Le 16161)
