If that's all you need to do, you can just add a black hole route for that 
address.  Either route them to your loopback or use reject, like this:
route add -host 1.2.3.4 reject

That should accomplish what you want without needing to get into 
firewalling.

[WBEL-users] Block IP Address






Just wondering what would be the most efficient way to block an IP
address. I'm using Apache and I have a vsFTPd running.  I'd like to block
any attempts from a specific ip address and I wasn't sure if iptables
would block for all down the chain.

Kind of a newbie so be gentle.
;)
