Be default, the agent will read /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf, even if another file is
specified. If you don't want to read it, you need to specify -C.

Note that there are probably issues with the persistent file in this scenario,
since both agents will be accessing the same file. I've just created a
min-howto on how to do this safely:

You are lost in a twisty maze of little standards, all different.
