Realm for NTLM Authentication

Mike, thanks for the answer for my previous question. 
 
I have one more clarification regarding specifying the realm when setting credentials. 
Is it okay to specify "null" value for realm when setting credentials for NTLM authentication. Does specifying null value, cause any security violation.
 
 
Thanks,
Karthi
