There are a few ways you can do this:

1. You can use route. Syntax looks like this:

/sbin/route add -host *IP TO BLOCK HERE* gw 127.0.0.1

2. You can use iptables / ipchains:

/usr/local/bin/iptables -I INPUT -s *IP TO BLOCK HERE* -j DROP
/sbin/ipchains -I input -s *IP TO BLOCk HERE* -j DENY

This will block all access to your server.
