You'd better check the permissions there.  What does
'getfacl /cygdrive/c/oracle/product/10.1.0/db_1/bin/EXP.EXE'
show?  ls doesn't think that shankar has the rights to
execute it, which may be part of your problem.  Also, remember
that which is a tcsh builtin, but in bash you get /bin/which, and
they are different.  I'm not sure why bash and tcsh are able
to exec the program if you don't have execute permissions.
