Hi Marty,

It depends on the release. If you are using the original BBB release, the
netctl profile contains the keys. The easiest way is to remove that file.
The file is located at:

/etc/netctl/<profile_name>

where the <profile_name> is the name profile name that was chosen when
running "wifi-menu".

Simply remove the file:

rm /etc/netctl/<profile_name>

and then re-execute the "wifi-menu -o" to create a new profile with the
correct password.

The wireless information on Doug's page should give you further information:

This document will show you the contents of the wireless netctl profile.

If you are using the later rpi2/bbb releases (greater that 1.2.1 for BBB
such as a alpha/beta release, there are a number of other issues. Mainly,
 netctl conflicts with systemd  for networking which systemd is currently
configured on the later releases.  Also, there are some other caveats and
not currently supported (at least the usb wireless fob networking).

73,
