Syslog plugin install

[RudyM88]

Good day gurus,

A n00b here asking for help. I installed Cacti on a Raspberry Pi, and now i want to install the syslog plugin, i have spend the last four hours trying to figure out how to install the plugin with absolutely no success. I was able to install syslog-ng as per the instructions (or so i think) but there is not way i can install the syslog plugin.
All instructions tell me to copy the unzip directory to the plugin folder but i cant find the folder anywhere, and the only plugin folder i ("/usr/share/cacti/site/plugins") when i try to copy the syslog folder into it it will tells me I don't have permissions.

Any help or guldens is greatly appreciated.

These days, the instruction are more biased toward rsyslog:
