Using Interceptors with NHibernate, Spring.NET, Open Session In View

Question

I'm trying to implement a simple interceptor that will automatically apply a CreateDate/UpdateDate values when an object is created or updated. I've scoured the documentation and forums at NHibernate, and I'm left wondering if there is an open bug with Spring.NET/Open Session in View.

Looking at this forum thread, it appears that even though there was a bug being discussed in 2006-2008, as of this month someone was still having to manually create a sessionfactory (see last post in the thread). Does anyone know how to get this working? Here is my configuration (namespaces removed):

Hibernate config

<object id="UserService" type="...Service.Users.UserServiceHibernate, ...Service">
      <property name="HibernateTemplate" ref="HibernateTemplate" />
</object>
<object id="persistentEntityInterceptor" type="...Service.PersistentObjectInterceptor, ...Service">
</object>  
<object id="HibernateTemplate" type="Spring.Data.NHibernate.HibernateTemplate, Spring.Data.NHibernate">
      <property name="SessionFactory" ref="NHibernateSessionFactory"/>
      <property name="EntityInterceptor" ref="persistentEntityInterceptor"/>
</object>
<object id="TransactionManager" type="Spring.Data.NHibernate.HibernateTransactionManager, Spring.Data.NHibernate20">
      <property name="DbProvider" ref="DbProvider"/>
      <property name="SessionFactory" ref="NHibernateSessionFactory"/>
      <property name="EntityInterceptor" ref="persistentEntityInterceptor"/>
</object>

web.config

<appSettings>
    <add key="Spring.Data.NHibernate.Support.OpenSessionInViewModule.SessionFactoryObjectName" value="NHibernateSessionFactory"/>
    <add key="Spring.Data.NHibernate.Support.OpenSessionInViewModule.EntityInterceptorObjectName" value="persistentEntityInterceptor"/>
</appSettings>

With these settings, I get the following error when I try to do anything using HibernateTemplate:

No object named 'persistentEntityInterceptor' is defined : Cannot find definition for object [persistentEntityInterceptor]

I think the answer is for me not to be an idiot, and to edit the correct config file.
