On RHL & derivatives, "service" is the "one true way" to run the init.d

You just have to run rcapache restart to restart the service on SUSE. Or
you can run /etc/init.d/apache restart directly.
Others have pointed out both of those have their drawbacks. What ever
SUSE has that's equivalent to Red Hat's service command _might_ present
a safe environment.
btw Apache doesn't _have_ to be run as root; you could tell the
developer he's running Apache as himself and using, say, port 3068.
Then, just don't use the standard scripts.
If you run Apache or any other service with non-root user, you will be
limited to use ports greater than 1024.
As I hinted when I nominated port 3068. It would allow the developer to
get on with developing without granting the means to do bad things such
as misrepresent the development website as an official one.
