Code:

$ netstat | grep nfs
tcp        0      0 RFZIWEZHTIOZ.HWEITG:807 192.168.3.7:nfs             ESTABLISHED
tcp        0      0 WOEIFTHEJTGPOWEPOGTJ.PWETG:915 SIHGHSDGL.SDGKJ:nfs    ESTABLISHED

If you want to track continuously all connections you could look at the actual network traffic:

Code:

#  tcpdump | grep nfs

This will run forever and you will see all nfs communication including the handshake between two machines. You could further grep for ack packages to see which connections are acknowledged...

You can also use showmount to see what workstation has mounted your share.
