Autprovisioning DSS keys won't take...

Not sure what your actual issue was, but usually we run into this sort of thing when a user makes changes and those changes are not prefixed as "static." in the provisioning files. If you don't have the static nomenclature in there the provisioned settings are lower priority than "user defined" ones, so short of a factory reset there's no way to get them to apply again.

Doesn't sound like that was the case here but wanted to mention it so you were aware in the future.

As far as text files getting corrupted, sure I've seen it happen before. Not a provisioning server but definitely on hard drives that are failing, USB drives that choke, etc. Typically the text file will look visually "almost OK", but some of the characters go funky. Other times characters that are not visually displayable get randomly jammed into spots throughout the file. Open your "clean" copy up against the corrupted one in something like Notepad++ and you should be able find the differences fairly easily.
