if, for whatever reason, you do not have access to the password, you might be able to install another filter (openDNS, SafeEyes or something) on top of K9 and then configure it to block whatever you want to block and then give the password to someone or keep the password on the other side of town or in a safe deposit box or something

just putting out the idea, i do not know if having two filters would cause the machine to discombobulate or not

Also, tell him that all Internet access is being monitored, and make sure to review your daily eBlaster (or similar) report.
