The summary of responses was, in effect:  there is no way to do it on a
general Linux system.

Several people pointed out places where documentation (e.g. lsof)
implies this should be doable, but experimentally it works for NFS
clients but not servers.  One person reported success with a home-grown
pcap library based traffic sniffer but did not say the source was
publicly available.  Several others suggested packet sniffers, one
person suggested using "systemtap" to build one.

One response indicated that on the Sun Fishworks storage box (e.g. 7210)
this information is trivially available.

Thanks for all responses.
