We use "ps". Doing a 'ps aux|grep afp' will give you a list of all the
afp processes. The one owned by "root" is the original. All the others
are owned by the login id of the user. To track down machines, you have
to go to the log file: /var/log/messages
sudo grep afp /var/log/messages
will list out everything, including the process ID. With a little
scripting, it would be possible to "join" the two together by process ID,
thus matching user with machine. Hmmmm....maybe I'll write it and donate
it to the list.
