    "Sudoers" replaced during update, now I am locked out.

    I have a (very) remote server, which I upgraded from 10.04.
    During the upgrade I was asked if it was OK to replace the "Sudoers", and as the fool I am, I answered "Yes".
    Now I am completely locked out of the systems (my user works OK, but I am not able to elevate my privileges).

    Does anyone have a way of restoring my privileges?
    Since the server is remote (800 km ~ 500 miles from me) it is not an option to boot server in repair mode.
    I hope there is a way to go back, because the alternative is most annoying.

    Regards
Working...
