I am trying to setup some rules that apply to a range of source ip address
in a subnet.  Example 10.1.1.60-65  I know that you can specify individual
ip adress with -s but this would make me do allot of repeating because I
will have to apply the same rules to each ip address. Any help would be
appreciated.  Thanks

I don't know if using netmasks would help?

You can factorise it down to two lines:

        -s 10.1.1.60/30        which gets .60, .61, .62 and .63
        -s 10.1.1.64/31        which gets .64 and .65

better if you can organise the ip addresses of the hosts that you want to
filter
so that they fit inside a single mask, for example number your six hosts
64-69
inclusive, then do not have a host .70 or .71 and you can use a single
match:

        -s 10.1.1.64/29        which gets .64 -> .71

that's what netmasks are for...
