I use classes described in http://www.theserverside.com/articles/content/HivemindBuzz/article.html. This is perfect approach for DAO pattern. Just declare DAO object as service with implementation and property of type org.hibernate.Session and setter setSession(Session). Session is then created uppon your request to service and always initialized and closed through ApplicationServlet which cleanups hivemind. There's also transaction interceptor...
