Viewing AFP Log Files
You can use tail or any other file listing tool to view the contents of the AFP service
logs.
To view the latest entries in a log:
$ tail log-file
You can use the serveradmin getLogPaths command to see where the current AFP
error and activity logs are located.
To display the log paths:
$ sudo serveradmin command afp:command = getLogPaths
Output
afp:accesslog = <access-log>
afp:errorlog = <error-log>

$ sudo serveradmin status nfs
To see complete NFS status:
$ sudo serveradmin fullstatus nfs

$ sudo serveradmin settings nfs
