Let \goth E(\goth p) denote the Eisenstein ideal in the Hecke algebra \Bbb T(\goth p) of the Drinfeld modular curve X0(\goth p) parameterizing Drinfeld modules of rank two over \Bbb Fq[T] of general characteristic with Hecke level \goth p-structure, where \goth p\triangleleft\Bbb Fq[T] is a non-zero prime ideal. We prove that the characteristic p of the field \Bbb Fq does not divide the order of the quotient \Bbb T(\goth p)/\goth E(\goth p) and the Eisenstein ideal \goth E(\goth p) is locally principal.
