I've created a test case. However, it's not such a simple thing. My unit test has to fire up the a remote server, running the jackrabbit-webapp WAR, then set up the repo with the ACL for the user. It's far too much to paste on the list here. I can send you my JUnit test class if you like. But here's the main snippet, slightly pseudo-ized. Assume: 1) user has jcr:all on node a 2) user has read only on jcr:system tree Test Code: Node a = clientSession.getRootNode().getNode("a"); Node b = myNode.addNode("b"); b.addMixin("mix:versionable"); clientSession.save(); VersionManager versionManager = clientSession.getWorkspace().getVersionManager(); Version version = versionManager.checkin(b.getPath()); //add a version label VersionHistory versionHistory = versionManager.getVersionHistory(b.getPath()); String versionLabel = "Version One"; boolean replaceLabelWithSameName = false; versionHistory.addVersionLabel(version.getName(), versionLabel, replaceLabelWithSameName); clientSession.save(); RESULTS: 1) checkin succeeds 2) addVersionLabel fails with AccessDeniedException
