And the help you need is...?  The hosts  *are* unreachable.  Here are a

The ??? indicates that the host cannot be reached...  A firewall, perhaps..?

Don't know what you have named the IP address, but this is what I see...

Non-authoritative answer:
225.48.4.202.in-addr.arpa	name = angel.samoa.net.ws

Authoritative answers can be found from:
48.4.202.in-addr.arpa	nameserver = ns1.samoa.ws
48.4.202.in-addr.arpa	nameserver = ns2.samoa.ws
ns1.samoa.ws	internet address = 202.4.48.215
ns2.samoa.ws	internet address = 202.4.48.216

I am perfectly capable of learning from my mistakes.  I will surely
learn a great deal today.
