Well, it depends on how SuSE bothers to start daemons, it depends on the daemon (some will fork themselves afterwards anyways, apache and exim for example), etc.
It might be that it's as simple as starting the daemon using su as has been pointed out further on, or it might be that it uses something akin to debian's start-stop-daemon. I haven't got a SuSE box "handy" to check, home has several debian boxes, work has several debian boxes and the odd CentOS box and our customers are generally RHEL.
It might not be that no one knows - it might just be that no one can check!
