 ====== TMSSNOMD5 ======
+By default when TapeTrack [[cli:introduction|Command Line programs]] send passwords to the TapeTrack Framework Server they are first MD5 hashed, and then AES encrypted along with the rest of the data that is sent with the login request.
+When a TapeTrack [[object:user|User]] uses [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_Directory|Windows Active Directory]] authentication, TapeTrack must be able to AES decrypt the login request and then send an unhashed password to Active Directory.
+When the [[variable:start|Environmental Variable]] ''TMSSNOMD5'' is set the TapeTrack low level API will not MD5 hash the password and instead send the actual password (AES encrypted) to the TapeTrack Framework Server.
+The value of the [[variable:start|Environmental Variable]] is not consequential.
+===== Example =====
+<code>
+set TMSSNOMD5=on
