Has anyone tried Redistributing the routes into a transitionary protocol
like ospf, then putting them back into rip, with a new metric?
You may have to involve more than one router, but this would
reduce your hop - count

Bob brings up a good point below. One thing I was uncertain with after my
reply (and even mentioned to a colleague also on the list) was that
offset-list might only be supported in ip rip, not ipx rip. I looked up
the command reference and that appears to be the case and I just tried it
in a router in the lab (only worked under router rip, not an option with
ipx router rip).
