Subject: modifying sysDescr or sysLocation in netsnmp

I'm a newbie wrt netsnmp ... apologies upfront.

I am running netsnmp on a linux box.
I setup an snmpd.conf file and startup snmpd pointing to this file.

QUESTION 1:
With the snmpd up and running,
what's the simplest way to update sysLocation (read/write) from the local linux 
box ?

*         should I use "/usr/bin/snmpset localhost ... " ?

*         should I kill snmpd, update the snmpd.conf file, and restart snmpd ?

QUESTION 2:
With the snmpd up and running,
what's the simplest way to update sysDescr (read only) from the local linux box 
?

*         should I kill snmpd, update the snmpd.conf file, and restart snmpd ?

*         ... are there any other options ? ...
