as a role-of-thumb... the <source ip address> in the distance command can be
foud from the show ip route command.. example

#sh ip route 12.1.4.4

12.1.4.5 via 150.1.4.4

obviously this 150.1.4.4 is nothing but the RID in ospf... same rule applies
for rip, eig...

so whenever u want to know the source ip add.. dont gusee. just apply the
route to #sh ip route
