regex in apache Allow from directive

Hi,

Does the apache Allow from directive support regular expressions?
such as:
Code:
Allow from ^web11[6-8][0-9]blah\.blah\.blah\.yahoo\.com$

what i want to do:
allow access from hosts in the range web1160blah.blah.blah.yahoo.com to web1189blah.blah.blah.yahoo.com

notice the 1160 to 1189 range as part of hostname

is this possible using a regex, or i must mention all host names one by one? Or any other better alternatives?

Thanks in advance

You can allow by IP address range, not regex on names.

You could set an enviromental variable based on the name and use the env var to allow access.
