Default Connection from UDP: [127.0.0.1] REFUSED in snmp.log file

Hi

I have installed the net-snmp-5.2.1_2 package on a FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE-p32.
I installed the package from ports, and compiled ok as it seemed. I
then followed the snmpconf guide located here:
http://silverwraith.com/papers/freebsd-snmp.php

My problem is that all UDP connections from localhost/lan/wan ip seems
to be refused, and my snmpd.log file has these entrys:
Connection from UDP: [127.0.0.1]:2656 REFUSED
Connection from UDP: [10.0.0.7]:2657 REFUSED
etc. etc.

My snmpd.conf looks like this:
syslocation Sweden
sysservices 78
rocommunity local localhost

I cannot start the snmp daemon if i have an agentaddress localhost
line in there.
It creates the follwoing entry in snmpd.log:
Error opening specified endpoint "127.0.0.1"
Server Exiting with code 1

i've tried localhost, 127.0.0.1:161 etc. but the daemon wont start
when this line is added.

I i edit snmpd.conf manually and add the agentaddress line, while the
daemon is running, and restart the daemon with kill -s HUP pid then it
doesn't exit.

I start the daemon as root, i've checked with sockstat | grep 161 that
no other app is using the port, and i have tried ports above 1024.
I have google'd using the error codes but cannot seem to find the solution.

Is my problem with the refused connection entrys related to the fact
that i cant add the agentaddress line in my config, or isn't it
needed?

/Nik
