It doesn't write to native.log, it writes to shibd.log.

You should grant control over native.log to all of the accounts that the module/filter happens to run as, and that's not in the same folder used by shibd for its logs, and you definitely shouldn't give those accounts read access to the private key in etc/

On a normal Windows box, all of this is pretty automatic, so there's something not normal about the IIS app account(s).
