h1. Install Apache Web Server 

 1. Install the Apache Web Server with the YaST or yum utility. 

 2. Find "httpd.conf". 
  This is /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf on CentOS and /etc/apache2/httpd.conf /etc/php5/apache2/httpd.conf on SuSE 

 3. Edit the "httpd.conf" configuration file with the following: 
  <pre> 
  DirectoryIndex index.htm index.shtm index.html index.shtml index.php 

  HostnameLookups On 
  </pre> 

 *Note:* It may be possible to edit httpd.conf in YaST2 as well. 

 4. Restart the web server. 

 <pre> 
 apachectl restart 
      or 
 sudo /sbin/service httpd restart       (ON CentOS/RHEL/Fedora) 
      or 
 /etc/sbin/rcapache2 /etc/init.d/apache2 restart     (ON SuSE) 
      or 
 /sbin/service httpd restart 
 </pre>                   

       If you want to start the web server automatically at boot on SuSE 

 <pre> 
 sudo /sbin/chkconfig apache2 on    #SuSE 
 sudo /sbin/chkconfig httpd on    #CentOS/RHEL/Fedora 
 </pre>
