HostExplorer ML 14.0

HostExplorer ML by OpenText Corporation is a terminal emulation and secure host connectivity solution that enables reliable access to enterprise systems from modern Windows environments. It provides emulation for common host types—including IBM mainframe (TN3270/TN3270E), IBM i/AS/400 (TN5250), and VT terminals for UNIX/OpenVMS—so users can work with legacy applications without changing back-end systems.

Designed for security and manageability, HostExplorer ML supports encrypted connections (such as SSL/TLS and SSH), directory-based authentication, and certificate or smart card workflows. Power users and administrators can automate and standardize tasks with features like macro recording and scripting, keyboard mapping, printer emulation, and integrated file transfer options (e.g., IND$FILE, FTP/SFTP). Centralized configuration and deployment tools help enforce settings and streamline updates across large environments.

With a multilingual interface and a focus on usability, HostExplorer ML helps global teams improve productivity, reduce support overhead, and modernize host access while preserving the stability of mission-critical applications.
