 Compiling the kernel to support firewall rules, and  with ipchains you can
 block port 21 so only net 192.168.1.0/24 can see your ftp. You can make
this
 with following rules:

 /sbin/ipchains -A input -p tcp -s 192.168.1.0/24 -d my.ip.comes.here 21 -j
 ACCEPT
 /sbin/ipchains -A input -p tcp -s 0.0.0.0/0 -d my.ip.comes.here 21 -j DENY

 Or you can use the tcp wrappers. See host.allow and host.deny
