Yes, you are.
Try simply running "snmpd" (after restoring the snmpd.conf file).
That should work.
If you still have problems, try running the agent using
"snmpd -f -Le"
which should display any error output.

That's because the agent isn't listening.
Or rather, it's listening on a Unix socket named
"/usr/local/share/snmp/snmpd.conf"
(which is why the config file gets overwritten).
Restart the agent without any options (or with '-f -Le')
and try the snmpget/snmpwalk commands again.
If they still don't work, please report the exact commands
you are giving, the full contents of the snmpd.conf file,
and any output from both agent and clients.
Details are often important - a report that "it doesn't work"
isn't particularly useful.
