You can point to someone else's server only if you are a non-profit. If you make a profit on redistributing GPL software, you must bare the expense of providing the source code, but you can charge the recipient a fee for doing so. Only non-profits can point to the servers of any (upstream) source code providers. LGPL is almost certainly no different. I have no comment about the BSD license in this regard.
