Need help configuring php 4.3.10 with Apache 2.0.53

I realize that I am breaking UseNet ettiquette by not lurking for a
while but I really need to get this problem solved quickly. I have not
lurked but am quite familiar with newsgroups, faqs, and such and will
continue hanging out in this and c.l.p as I learn and use php.

My problem: I manage a server running SuSE 9.1 Linux distribution. Due
to the difficulties with SuSE's setup of Apache, I was unable to get SSL
to work with the distro's installation of Apache so uninstalled,
reinstalling 2.0.53 from Apache's site. Easy as pie to get SSL working
then. But, now I'm trying to get php going. I started with version 5,
then read the use only these versions - don't use any version of 5 info
in the install files and the faqs on php.net so having no luck with 5
anyway, uninstalled it, then installed 4.3.10. Can't get it working.
If I leave the LoadModule line uncommented in httpd.conf, the server
starts without errors but does not serve any pages.

I had the same thing on another experimental server that was fixed with
adding <IfModule php4.c> (not exactly correct here) as shown in the
install file with the distribution. On this other server, it won't work
even though everything else, as far as I can tell, is the same. I had
also tried the AddModule suggested in the install but that seems to be
an invalid directive for Apache2.

If anyone is willing to offer some assistance, I can send httpd.conf,
php.ini, or any other config files or pieces of config code. I'm
probably missing something pretty easy as I have it working on two other
servers.
