blocking inter-vlan traffic

I have a l3 switch configured with intervlan routing.
host A in vlan 10 : 10.10.10.1
host B in vlan 20 : 20.20.20.2

I need to restrict all traffic initiated from host B towards host A.
But host A should be able to speak to Host B, if Host A initiates the traffic.
for example, if i want to copy a file from host A to host B, i should be able to.
start -> run ->\\20.20.20.2

but the other way around should not work.

i am on a time line .. any quick toughts would be appreciated.

what kind of switch do you have?
and anyway rather hard to perform, because switches in most cases have only basic ACL capabilities, like allow/deny communications from A to B, and in your case if A needs to reply back to B, then traffic also will be blocked.

I have a 4506 cat4000-i9s-mz.122-20.EWA4.bin.

I did conside using vlan acls . but i think we cant block it one way and allow the other way.
Any ideas !!
