Export of database not working

Question

Hi,
I have Oracle 8.1.7 server/client on same machine (standalone)...i have created 2 database...db1(dbname - xxx) & db2 (dbname-yyy)
I wanted to take a database dump using "exp.exe"...
for my db1 i was able to take with the following commands..
d:\oracle\ora81\bin\exp.exe sys/change_on_instal@xxx file=d:\db1.dmp buffer=1000000 Full=y log=db1_exp.log compress=y
But when i tried for db2 with the dabname changed...
d:\oracle\ora81\bin\exp.exe sys/change_on_instal@yyy file=d:\db2.dmp buffer=1000000 Full=y log=db2_exp.log compress=y
But the problem is that it again takes the dump of db1 ...even with the dbname change to yyy...but the database db1 & db2 are working fine...
does anyone faced such a problem? anybody can help me?
thank you in advance
Manoj
