No - the snmpd daemon will probably be installed as /usr/local/sbin/snmpd
The 'init.d' directory is used for start-up scripts for the various
system daemons.
There's an example for such a script in 'dist/snmp-init.d'
but you'd need to copy it into place yourself.
And I'm not sure whether this is modelled on the Ubuntu-style
version of such startup scripts, or a Fedora template. So you might
need to tweak it to match your setup.
But the agent itself will bin in a binary directory, not /etc/init.d

This will be created automatically when you run the agent.
It's not created as part of "make install"

We don't install a default snmpd.conf, because we don't know how
you want to run the agent. You should create this yourself, to match
your own requirements.
The simplest such file would probably contain simply
rocommunity public
(or you could replace "public" with a different community name)
Note that for a self-compiled version of the agent, this should probably
be installed as /usr/local/etc/snmpd.conf rather than /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf
I wouldn't expect anything to be installed under /etc/defaults.
I can't think why that would be relevant to SNMP.
