The password may not be a problem here.
In 9i, sys must connect 'as sysdba' or 'as sysoper'.
So, use 'sys as sysdba' when prompted for username (without the single
quotes).
If you want to use a parfile, then specify userid='sys/password as sysdba'.
Those single quotes are needed and notice
I tried to do full database import use sys ID and have error come
out. for sqlplus I can use sqlplus /nolog to avoid it, but on
import/export how to avoid it?

It would appear you don't know the pw of sys, or maybe the capslock is
on ;) If you can sqlplus /nolog can connect and alter the sys pw.
Then you will know the sys pw and can use it on imp cmd.
$ sqlplus /nolog
