To support hosting environments
Hostirian and Navy Linux will expand support for the operating system and establish the most beneficial testing environments. Hostirian will begin hosting mirror links to download the operating system (OS) with this new strategic partnership.

President of Hostirian Ken Cox said,
“I have always had a deep passion and respect for Linux operating systems and the community that has always believed in its importance. It is an honor to be named to the Navy Linux Board of Directors, and I am super excited to join them. My goal is for Navy Linux to continue capitalizing on its success and ‘keep on rocking.’ The world needs this community, and they deserve all the support we can give them.”
