files to keep information about these? clients used ftp,
nis, samba, apache, squid, nfs and mail services how to
know how many users got service from server side with
date,time and client system ip ?

Checking the logs is a good idea always.
Now for which server we need to check should be clear.
mail server --> /var/log/mail/maillog [RedHat,centos]
ssh --> /var/log/secure
apache --> /var/log/http/access.log
nfs alrady told also check in /var/log/ folder
samba and nis dont know excatly.

Also check the syslog level and the perticular server log
informations.[Eg: Tomcat keeps log in
$CATALINA_HOME/log/catalina.out which if different then
linux logs]
