Thanks for that, gave me a good lead. Although it didnt work when i 
rebooted. i took off the network drivers from the vmware config, then 
rebooted. all works fine now. Only downside is that i dont have network 
access in the virtual machines. but sudo is working again.

Thanks for the pointer :-)
