You can not run two programs that listen on the same port number at the
same time.
It is possible to run two version of the agent at the same time by
following the instructions in the 'CO-EXISTENCE WITH MICROSOFT SNMP
SERVICES' section of the win32\dist\readme.txt file. You should be able
to do the same thing with snmptrapd. You could leave snmptrapd on the
default port and configure Microsoft's snmptrap service to listen on a
different port number. You would then need to configure snmptrapd to
forward the traps you want to forward to the Microsoft trap receiver on
the other port.
