Root partition full and can't account for all 4GB

I am trying to figure out how the 3.1G of the 4G root partition is being used. I'm at 84% right now but it's been as high as 98% and don't want to run into that situation again.

root@RIGHTSTER-NAS:/etc/default# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
rootfs 4.0G 3.1G 610M 84% /
tmpfs 10M 4.0K 10M 1% /dev
/dev/md0 4.0G 3.1G 610M 84% /
tmpfs 1.9G 44K 1.9G 1% /dev/shm
tmpfs 1.9G 21M 1.9G 2% /run
tmpfs 1.9G 0 1.9G 0% /sys/fs/cgroup
tmpfs 1.9G 0 1.9G 0% /media
/dev/md127 28T 9.9T 18T 37% /data
/dev/md127 28T 9.9T 18T 37% /home
/dev/md127 28T 9.9T 18T 37% /apps
/dev/md127 28T 9.9T 18T 37% /var/ftp/syslog
/dev/md127 28T 9.9T 18T 37% /run/nfs4/home


I can't figure out where all that disk space is being used at. When I look at the du excluding the other mount points I can only see about 1.8G of usage.

root@RIGHTSTER-NAS:/etc/default# du -k /* --exclude=/data --exclude=/home --exclude=/apps --exclude=/run/sfs4/home --exclude=/dev/shm --exclude=/run --exclude=/sys/fs/cgroup --exclude=/media --max-depth=1 | sort -nr | cut -f2 | xargs -d '\n' du -sh
1.1G /var
503M /usr
116M /opt
67M /frontview
47M /root
36M /lib
7.9M /sbin
7.0M /bin
7.0M /etc
52K /tmp
8.0K /cp_check_md5sums.sh
4.0K /logs
4.0K /lib64
4.0K /homes
48K /dev
