Ok here's what I did:

I was in the ORANT\BIN folder.

I had to figure out what the SID was for the DB. Did that via an Oracle client which I tried to connect remotely to Oracle on the server.

set oracle_sid=a

exp73.exe System/manager file=myexp13xxxx.dmp full=y log=mylog130527.log

Been a long time but I remember that you can use either ORACLE_SID or LOCAL to set your database. Check your registry (something like local_machine/software/oracle). Make sure you have only one of the two set. Make sure that your database service is running. Then try to start an sql session first: sqlplus username/password. Once that works so will exp.
