Most "static" agent configuration should go in the traditional location (typically /usr/local/share/snmp/snmpd.conf or /etc/snmp). The /var/ucd-snmp (or /var/net-snmp) location is used for information set during the running of the agent, which needs to be persistent between one run of the agent and the next.

Putting the 'createUser' line in this persistent file is an exception, for security reasons (see above). In general you shouldn't need to put anything else here.
