Windows:
exp '/ as sysdba' file=%expfile%.dmp log=%expfile%.log consistent=yes full=y
statistics=none

Unix:
exp \'/ as sysdba\' file ....

if you launch from cron:

su - oracle -c "exp \'/ as sysdba\' file=...."

ops$ is not terribly secure, so we just code the password
in the parameter file, dedicate a OS user to this process
and make all files -and directories - readable only by that
user.
