I happened to have my hostname a fqdn. I changed the values of /etc/hosts around and ended up borking my sudo. I was mortified since it's a remote machine. After trying a few things suggested here and elsewhere, I ended up changing the A record for my hostname to 127.0.1.1 and that got sudo working again. Saved me a few hours of driving. Cheers!
