Allow connection from 127.0.0.1 only

I need to set up the ftp server so that it can ONLY be logged into
from the same machine (127.0.0.1). The directory security tab of the
property sheets allows me specifiy IP addresses for access. If I set
all default to denied and put in 127.0.0.1 for a permitted IP address,
what 'mask' do I use?

Thanks

You won't need a mask - just select "single computer", and the "subnet mask"
field will disappear.
