It's not recommended to modify /etc/sudoers because it can be overwritten/reset during a next upgrade.
Best is to have a file inside /etc/sudoers.d.
Be sure to have the following instruction in your /etc/sudoers:

#includedir /etc/sudoers.d

NB: this is not a comment but a real/active instruction ;)

Please use:

sudo cat /etc/sudoers

on both machines

PS: if not already the case, you should always edit your sudoers files with visudo or visudo -f /my/path/to/sudoers/fileIt makes some syntaxic checks before saving the file, preventing you having great trouble ;)
