You can find some general guidelines about contributing to the project here: http://www.port389.org/docs/389ds/contributing.html If you haven't setup the server already I suggest you start by building the server and try some basic operations like ldapsearch or creating users and groups in order to experiment a bit. You can find build instructions on the above link as well. RHDS documentation will also be your friend, especially the Administration Guide: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en/red-hat-directory-server/ Don't waste too much time with these guides now, just skim through them. You'll refer to them when needed. I don't know what the Outreachy project will be about, but if it involves lib389, wibrown offers some initial directions here: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/389-devel@ lists.fedoraproject.org/message/TJS7IS7MGERQIME53DSIYMDUHEYTJYZ4/ You could try to install lib389 and experiment with the cli tools (dsconf, dsctl, dsidm) as well and see what's there and what's missing. Hope that helps, Ilias
