There are 2 methods in jackrabbit core (ACLTemplate) to deal with this: (1) public boolean addEntry(Principal principal, Privilege[] privileges, boolean isAllow) and (2) public boolean addEntry(Principal principal, Privilege[] privileges, boolean isAllow, Map restrictions) For the time being, Jackrabbit 1.5 only supports to invoke the first one or the second one without restrictions (restrictions = null). These features belong to jsr-283 specification (AKA JCR 2.0) [1] and the Jackrabbit implemention is only a developer preview. > So if it is really not possible to apply restrictions, I suggest > removing the isAllow parameter from AccessControlUtil.addEntry().

In the other hand, we are using reflection to invoke addEntry(Principal principal, Privilege[] privileges, boolean isAllow) but this implemention has a bug. I have created an issue [2] to deal with this problem. Please, follow the issue to know about their resolution. Sorry for the problems. BR, Juanjo.
