Hammer & Screwdriver Not able to run any command /lib64/ld-Linux-x86-64.so.2: bad ELF interpreter

Hi,

I accidentally did this:

[
Code:
wadhwaso@nxsdgd01 deps]$sudo rpm -e --nodeps glibc-2.5-107.x86_64
error: %postun(glibc-2.5-107.x86_64) scriptlet failed, exit status 255

and since then I am not able to run any command on this server except 'cd'.

I always get the following error:
Code:
[wadhwaso@nxsdgd01 ~]$ ls
-bash: /bin/ls: /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2: bad ELF interpreter: No such file or directory

I am not able to access this server via ssh and I cant even scp a file if I want to. i cant use 'touch', I cant 'vi'. I always get this error

I checked on another server for the file and following is the info.:

[
Code:
wadhwaso@nxsdgd05 ~]$ ls /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2
[wadhwaso@nxsdgd05 ~]$ ll /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Apr  7  2012 /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 -> ld-2.5.so

Fortunately I also have a winscp session opened for nxsdgd01 but as I am not logged in as root I cannot transfer a file in /lib64. How this could be resolved ?
