[snip] Is there a way of sending users with a local ip address say 127.0.0.1 and 192.168.xxx.xxx to goto one page and all other visitors to goto another? [/snip] Yes, there is. $_SERVER['REFERER'] will give you the referer mosy of the time. More info from TFM can be found here; http://us3.php.net/reserved.variables Header can then be used to redirect header("Location: http://www.example.com/"); /* Redirect browser */.

snip from TFM 'HTTP_REFERER' The address of the page (if any) which referred the user agent to the current page. This is set by the user agent. Not all user agents will set this, and some provide the ability to modify HTTP_REFERER as a feature. In short, it cannot really be trusted. notice the last 7 words !!!!
