i guess it's simple like

on /etc/hosts.allow

sshd : .example.com

on /etc/hosts.deny

sshd : .mig233.org

(first if your iptables is enabled allow your 22 port on system-config-securitylevel)

Would this be a homework question by any chance? Looks very much like it to me. However, moved to Linux-Newbie to give the benefit of the doubt.

Read the manpages for sshd_config(5). In particular, see the AllowUsers, DenyUsers, AllowGroups, and DenyGroups directives.

You probably aren't going to learn new concepts if others do your homework for you.
