As someone else pointed out, tcp_wrappers allows you to do this quite nicely. However, for the specific case of httpd your best bet is to install the apache server. You can then specify the bindings right in the config file. It is so easy to configure that one of my non-techie clients was able to figure it out on his own because he couldn't wait the 5 or 6 hours that it would have taken me to finish up my current task and be able to configure it for him. -- David H.
