If you install inotify-tools you can then use
'inotifywait -m /var/lib/nfs' to monitor changes in this directory.  (It
should be possible to get a timestamp for every change, but this feature
seems to be broken.)  The other option is to use auditd.  This should be
able to give you more detail, but would be more complex to set up.
