An explanation and config examples to setup CONFIG to your CredD machine 
can be found in Section 3.6.3.4 (whew!) of the Condor Manual -- this 
section discussed Password Authentication.  URL is

http://www.cs.wisc.edu/condor/manual/v7.0/3_6Security.html#SECTION00463400000000000000

You can also reference slide 18 on the tutorial online at
  http://www.cs.wisc.edu/condor/PCW2007/presentations/quinn_windows.ppt

If you had trouble setting the pool password on your credd machine, 
perhaps did you just forget the put something like
   HOSTALLOW_CONFIG = hostname-of-credd-box.foo
?
You mentioned your credd service is running on the same machine as the 
central manager... so you could do
   HOSTALLOW_CONFIG = $(CONDOR_HOST)
in your credd machine (and of course do condor_reconfig or 
condor_restart after editing the file!).  This means only people able to 
login to your central manager are able to set the pool password....

hope this helps,
Todd
