Redistributing summaries into rip

I was stuck on a problem yesterday, maybe someone has an idea..

RIP --- OSPF area0 --area1 --- RIP
Four rip routes were summarized on the first rip network to 192.168.0.0/22 and
reditributed into ospf, as soon as the summary is applied, routes that were
appearing in the second rip domain began to age out, (as expected). I tried
creating a static route on the asbr and redistributing that into the second
rip domain, but it doesn't show up, so I tried a secondary address with a /22
bit mask between the asbr and the rip router and added that to rip, same,
tried a tunnel, still the summary doesn't show up in the secondary rip domain.
The only way I could make it work was by either adding 4 static routes to
ospf, or advertising a default route into the rip domain. What I was wondering
was, is this the expected behavior for a route that has been summarized
downstream? Does anyone have a link to the tricks to use when adding routes
with variable masks to a classful protocol, I searched cco, and the archives
but haven't been able to find it, maybe I'm missing something..
