The version I was directed to via the download button (on 
"http://www.bareos.org/en/download.html";) was:

bareos_64_bit_nightly.x86_64-2014.04.0104.preload.iso

I would be more than happy to use a stable build but I specifically wanted the 
preload ISO so I could tinker with it and understand a bit more before I put in 
the configs for the tape library.

sudo /usr/sbin/bareos-dir -t

states that it was unable to connect to the PostgreSQL database 
(Database=bareos User=bareos)

ps -aux|grep postgres
confirms postgres running.

I am not much of a Linux wizard but I am trying to use it more and more.
sing out if there is any more information I need to source for you.
