add '-v' argument when you invoke buildout command.

Temporarily, I copyied the same file to :
http://www.nexedi.org/static/packages/source/python-memcached-1.45.tar.gz

And when I tried buildout with '-v', the log says:

We have no distributions for python-memcached that satisfies
'python-memcached==1.45'.
open_url('http://download.zope.org/distribution/')
open_url('http://download.hforge.org/itools/0.20/')
open_url('http://download.hforge.org/itools/')
open_url('http://dist.repoze.org')
open_url('http://www.nexedi.org/static/packages/source/')
open_url('http://pypi.python.org/simple/python-memcached/')
open_url('http://www.tummy.com/Community/software/python-memcached/')
open_url('ftp://ftp.tummy.com/pub/python-memcached/')
Getting distribution for 'python-memcached==1.45'.
open_url('http://www.nexedi.org/static/packages/source/python-memcached-1.45.tar.gz')
...

So it may work even when ftp does not work in your environment.
(But I'm not sure if it works when you cannot connect ftp.tummy.com)

And back to your question, you can create a directory to put downloaded
files (eg. /tmp/source), and add the path in find-links parameter of
[buildout] (see profiles/base.cfg for example). eg.

find-links +=
  file:///tmp/source/
