Report what, that ever program we use to access the ISP billing system
crashes if the date on the SQL server is beyond 2038?

No, why bother, I don't expect this billing package to be in use by then
and if it is I'm certainly not going to be the one dealing with it.


SQL server works fine with that date, it was just the frontend software
that had the problem.
