Hi,
Pl look into the parfile option for export/import. You can keep all your
export/import command line parameters in there, including userid/password.
Parfile (with chmod 700) is only accessible to the owner, so no one else can
see what is in it. And when you run exp/imp nothing from the parfile will be
displayed in the 'ps' output either. You can refer to Oracle Utilities
Guide for more information on exp/imp.
HTH,
