LOL......... Well, problem is these little offsites are all in one VLAN
(many of them have just a hub to connects to the router). What we
thought of doing is leaving the 2500 there, and upon installing the
3550, setup a tunnel and send the IPX traffic across the tunnel (there
would be a 6500 on the other end of the tunnel). Doesn't the 6500 have
the process switch all traffic to/from the tunnel interface? Just
thinking about the reality of using that as a workaround.....
Thanks!

Doesn't look like it. Didn't find anything about IPX other than ACL
support in the 12.1.14 config guide. Can't do IRB or CRB either on
those switches, so looks like you're stuck. Maybe create a single VLAN
at those sites for all the IPX devices, and when they no longer need
IPX, move them out of that VLAN to a routed IP-only VLAN.
