How do you lock down a Cisco port to a MAC

[dibbt]

I've got a Cisco 2950 switch, and I'm wondering if there is a way to lock down a port so that only a particular MAC address can be connected to that port?

You use port security on the port:

adding to burtsbee's, i would put the mac address in an ACL .. that way you just have to change the ACL instead of the config commands for the ports...
that is however just my two cents. I dont like having messy configuration, make an ACL , add a description and then apply it using the port-security feature.
