the answer is the same for any service on suse, go into yast and find
the bit where services are started. i don't have suse available this
second, follow your nose :)

or go to the command line and type:

/etc/init.d/apache start

(of course on suse the script might be called /etc/init.d/httpd, but
searching through your apache installed files would tell you:

rpm -ql apache |grep init

easier to use yast :)
