ereg and eregi functions will be deleted from Php. Please help to find alternatives for the following ereg functions:

1) To allow IP addresses only for specific ranges:

$targetAddr = "60.37..*..*";  
if (!ereg($targetAddr, $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'])) {
die;
} 

2) To replace series of points like .......................

$message = ereg_replace("[.]{3,}", "... ", $message);
