You can put in /etc/hosts.allow the IP in question:

Code:

vsftpd: x.x.x.x

and deny anyone else in /etc/hosts.deny

Code:

vsftpd: ALL

you already have a nice reply..

but if you are looking for providing access to your FTP in terms of network firewall, then too yes you can do it by adding a IPtable rule accept incoming connections (-A INPUT) from a specific IP (-d destination ip) to your ftp server ip (-s sourceip) and (-j ACCEPT).

EDIT: above hints are just for examples if you want to implement it we should know what you exactly looking for.

Try one of the following 2 notations instead:

Code:

vsftpd:  192.168.0.
vsftpd: 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0
