Personally, I'd tell the server guys to go stuff it. They work for you,
not the other way around. And I'm saying this as a server guy myself.
But .htaccess would be the more tactful solution.

Create a text file named .htaccess in the root of your site, and put
this line somewhere in it.

AddType application/x-httpd-php .htm .html

This directs the server to run .htm files on your site through the PHP
parser. That is, assuming the server guys haven't locked down Apache to
disallow that kind of thing.
