You asked:
| Is there anyway to specify a range of IP addresses such as
| 128.1.10.11 to 128.1.10.29 in this parameter ?
| I cannot find the man page for hosts_access(5) as mentioned in the
| smb.conf documentation.
No, but you can use ranges written as, for eaxmple
192.168.2.10/24 (24 bits in network part) or
192.168.2.10/255.255.255.0 (netmask format)
This means you can accept/deny a range that starts from 0.
As your range is from 11 (= 013 = 000 001 011) tp
29 (=035 = 000 011 101), this is better done with
domain names: you could allow mine.my-company.com
and deny everyone-else.my-company.com.
