I compiled the agent myself (net-snmp-5.4.1 on FC6):
mkdir net-snmp-5.4.1/agent/mibgroup/mymibs
cp mymibs/* net-snmp-5.4.1/agent/mibgroup/mymibs
cd net-snmp-5.4.1
../configure --with-libs=/usr/local/lib/libsensors.a
--with-defaults --with-openssl=/
--with-mib-modules="mymibs/myhw ucd-snmp/lmSensors"
--with-out-mib-modules="agent_mibs utilities"
make
....

The snmp daemon rpm is installed as follows:
chkconfig --add snmpd
chkconfig --level 0123456 snmpd off

It is started by:
service snmpd start

It is restarted by:
service snmpd restart
