A good detailed paragraph about the problem

I have been trying to get fake player names to work for mods like BuildCraft and ComputerCraft all week with no success. I have tried multiple cauldron versions, different direwolf versions, different plugins and even a few cauldron.yml options.

The main problem seems to be with cauldron, no matter what I put in the cauldron.yml config the fake players are not being initialized. From what I have gathered on the internet, the server log should output something like...
"[INFO] [FakePlayer] Initializing fake player for thaumcraft/common/lib/FakeThaumcraftPlayer: [FakeThaumcraftGolem]"
but it never does. Not to mention, obviously things like turtles and quarries can bypass protections with no problem.

None of the fake player names have OP and the default rank cannot bypass other players protections, also griefprevention's config.yml doesn't have any player names in the PlayersIgnoringAllClaims: [] list.

I am at a loss here, I have tried everything I can think of and searched the web with no success. I would really like to get the fake player names to work, so players can't grief others. So I came here in hopes someone could shed some light on this issue for me.

Thanks for your time.

Some info on stuff I have tried, to keep the post neat.

No, sorry if my post was confusing.

Mods like ComputerCraft should make a fake player for the turtles named [ComputerCraft]. So when a turtle tries to break a block, cauldron can check the plugins to see if the player (in this case [ComputerCraft]) has the permissions to do so.

There are a couple mods in the direwolf20 mod pack that do this, like BuildCraft, ThaumCraft and Forestry.

If I can get these fake player names to work, then players can not use turtles or quarries to by-pass GriefPrevention's protections.

The option is in cauldron.yml as...
fake-players:
do-login: true

You need to find their UUIDs, IIRC.

I think I can manage that, the question I have now though is, what do I do with the UUIDs?

I basically want the fake players to be in the default class, I don't want them to have OP.

Right now they are acting like they have OP rank, able to build/destroy anywhere.
