Yes, bit basic but it should work. substr().
www.php.net/substr
$FirstPartIp = substr($ip,0,5);
if($FirstPartIp=='10.8.4' || $FirstPartIp=='10.8.5'){
echo 'We have a local IP, continue!';
}else{
echo 'Get out stupid hacker';}
Should work. An other way is exploding the IP by .
www.php.net/explode
$IpParts = explode('.',$ip);
$IpParts is now an array and you can check for the correct address.
Good luck,
Polleke
