In your apache conf file (or .htaccess if you're set up that way) you 
can use mod_access:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/mod/mod_access.html

<Directory /path/to/docs>
# default Order Deny,Allow is in effect here
  Deny from all
  Allow from 192.168.0.10
  Allow from 192.168.0.11
</Directory>


Or you could use mod_rewrite
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/mod/mod_rewrite.html

and a good tutorial is here (it has examples on how to exclude a 
range - so just reverse the match rule)
