This is an issue with 2.2 that will be fixed in 2.5.

I believe you might be assuming what some of these are. 51 and 52
are protocol errors meaning the RADIUS client didn't send us one
of those required attributes. There isn't a good chance you'll
ever see those errors unless you have a seriously messed up NAS.

Typically, only 10, 11, 14 and 19 are common errors to show up.
You have three out of the four. You won't see 11 until RaidusNT
2.5. Seems like everything is working fine to me.
