Java Want to contribute to unix opensource projects.

Hello ,
I am C++, Objective C , Qt ,developer on Mac OS X, iOS having around 4+ years of experience. I never got a chance to work on System Level programming. But I am very much interested in it.
I don't want to do UI programming any more but I am doing just because of my current job profile.
So, for learning system programming in unix , I started reading "Advanced programming in the unix environment " and also started playing with unix and its commands.
As I have mentioned I don't want to do UI programming anymore, so to grab opportunity from current employer or from new one , I have to have some good hands-on on system programming networking & multithreading in unix .
Please suggest me a way to learn programming in unix .According to me , If I start understanding and contributing in some good open source project, It will be beneficial for me but I don't have any idea since I am a newbie in unix development.
So please suggest me some open source projects or some other way to improve my competency in low level programming in unix.
