lsof | grep -E 'RPMDELETE|;|path inode='

Thanks. Output from above:

20:11 wahoo:~ # lsof | grep -E 'RPMDELETE|;|path inode=' kded 6463 pat mem REG 8,6 914526 /usr/lib64/libdns_sd.so (path inode=678216) [...]

Nothing stands out to me, except maybe kded. Did: kdeinit kded and the process restarted, but did not allow any change to the firewall log.

I will go back to runlevel 1 and return to 5, again (after posting this.)

Perhaps you see something?

Dumb luck, but noticed that syslog-ng was not starting. I commented prior about this. What I *didn't* say was that 'rcsyslog start' did not start syslog-ng. Further searching revealed that syslog-ng was not referenced in /etc/sysconfig/syslog. I have a prior install of 10.1 on another drive for reference. Compared the syslog files and wrote the differences to /etc/sysconfig/syslog. Now going from runlevel 1 to 3 starts syslog-ng and the firewall logging has returned. Another revelation, the change time on /etc/sysconfig/syslog was 11 July, not the 13th where the firewall logging halted. I surmise that syslog was not stopped and failed to restart until I went to runlevel 1 to try to recover from the system thinking there was no free space on /home ???? What generates /etc/sysconfig/syslog as rpm -qf doesn't know?
