For a very basic and free solution you could use netstat.

Not saying this is the easiest or most accurate but perfmon will give you 
current connections.  If you are wanting live just start perfmon on the server 
and I think it is under the webservice current connections.  I use it on 
occasion for special events.

Another option is CurrPorts ( www.nirsoft.net ). Nice free utility.
