Did you also reset the system time to the correct local time? Is the time shown on the system correct? Did you do a "sudo /etc/init.d/hwclock.sh restart"? > since i have done that when i try to run anything starting with > ""sudo....

If resetting the time does not work, you can always change the root password by booting into single user mode (edit the grub menu at boot time, add "single" to the end of the kernel line, and boot). This should bring up a shell prompt, at which you can use passwd to reset the root password.
