Setting it to mysite.settings will work if c:\django is on your PYTHONPATH. Setting it to settings.py won't work at all because of the .py. Assuming you are running the python from c:\django\mysite, setting DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE to just 'settings' will work. Or, use 'python manage.py shell', which assumes settings.py is in the current directory and sets the environment up for you.
