I use route add -host 64.2.193.58 reject to reject an IP. 
So to delete that ip; I use route delete -host 64.2.193.58 reject
(I do alot of manual adding to the route reject table. Anonymous ftp and
ftp tries are gonna
drive me bonkers!)

It has to match the path exactly.

Great advice; however. Google didn't help me  when I managed to block
myself. Nor did the man pages on the Raq. After looking on man pages on
a bsd server did it finally dawn on me......Man pages can be cryptic.
