This one has been discussed on the list several times before. There's no
great way to do this and several okay ways; the best one involves
associating process ids with AFP connection information using the syslog.
Several scripts have been tossed around the list:
atalklogger is a program I wrote in Tcl. It runs as a daemon and can
track AFP/IP, AFP/DDP, and PAP connections.

Jim Hart and Squeegy have two versions of afpstat, a shell script/Perl
script (take your pick).

Tom Fitzgerald posted his script to the list a while back. Search the
archives for "atwho".
