In the sections titled

Creating a new Windows Azure Service Bus namespace

is not longer valid.

A update rolled on 8/24 did change the default behavior of newly created namespaces on the portal to support only SAS authentication. These steps work to create a proper service bus.

 1) Install azure PowerShell

http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/install-configure-powershell/

2) Connect the azure powershell to your subscription

add-azureaccount

3) Run New-AzureSBNamespace -name SBName -location 'east us'

changing your name and location. This will create the access control site properly. You should output similar to this.

Name                  : SBName

We are working to correct the official documentation.

Thanks as always.
