You just want to export the users, how about using sql to build sql instead.

like this:
 select 'create user '||username||

   ' identified by values '||''''||password||''''||
   ' default tablespace '||default_tablespace||
   ' temporary tablespace '|| temporary_tablespace||';' from
   sys.dba_users;

This does NOT do grants, quotas, etc, but its a starting point for you to build on.

you do a spool on BEFORE running this and a spool off AFTER.

then all u have to do is @spoolfilename
