retrieving restricted IP from database for apache2

| Hi ,
I want to make Apache2 check user IP on the fly and restrict access if
IP does not match existing client (and redirecting to a page explaining
why has it happened) .There is no problem with dynamic DNS since all
clients are expected to use static IPs.Ideally I would like to keep IPs
in the external mysql database and query it every time request comes
because we use this list for several servers.I checked this newsgroup
and Googled but could not find that anyone has done it.
Has anybody done it ?Or maybe I can find more elegant solution?
thank you in advance
Sergei

Do you have access to the httpd.conf? If so then you can do it with the
Allow/Deny from statements in a <Directory> container. It wouldn't be in
a SQL database, but in a text file.
