We FOUND IT.
We did do the procedure that Michael recommended, but unfortunately none of the
nfs mount labels /var /usr /tmp contained any data after booting into single
user mode.
What we did find was a NFS folder that contained a huge 300 meg .tar.gz file
that wasn't finished downloading.
Why does it say my main root partition is full when it's not? It's only using
146 Meg out of a possible 507 Meg
Filesystem 1024-blocks Used Avail

Try the FAQ entry titled The du and df commands show different amounts
of disk space available. What is going on?. You can find it at:

Thanks Lowell.
I did reboot the machine a few times, hoping that any process in memory that
still claimed ownership of an open part of the disk would release it.
Didn't work. I'm going to try the other method recommended by Michael Sierchio
-- to reboot in single user mode and try and clear

There are other things that can cause disk space to seem to disappear,
but there is a reason that one is in the FAQ
