It is acceptable to reply with a link to a relevant FAQ question provided you read their post carefully and make sure that it actually applies. Just try to understand that when someone asks a question in a forum, they're looking for a personalized answer, and it's better to provide one and encourage discussion than just send them off to a FAQ link.
