Distance command in EIGRP

Hi,

I have a question about the "distance" command under EIGRP configuration
mode.

I need to change the administrative distance (to 172) of some routes learning
by EIGRP, and I'm using the distance command, but the result isn't the
expected, the routes have the default external administrative distance of
EIGRP (170) and not the 172 (the desired). I'm sure that I'm wrong in
something but I don't found it.

The comfiguration of the router is follows:

router eigrp 100 distance 172 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 from_RIP_R5!ip
access-list standard from_RIP_R5 permit 205.90.31.0 permit 136.1.7.0 permit
150.1.7.0 permit 136.1.57.0 permit 222.22.2.0 permit 220.20.3.0 permit
192.10.1.0

The "show ip route" of one route (the other routes have the same
administrative distance):
Rack1R2#sh ip route 136.1.7.1 Routing entry for
136.1.7.0/24 Known via "eigrp 100", distance 170, metric 3097600, type

Thanks a lot and best regards
