To disable the sanity check you can set CONNECTIVITY_CHECK_URIS to "" 
and that will cause it to be skipped.

Regarding the mirroring, have you tried to just set the PREMIRRORS to 
use only http* and ftp in your local.conf:
PREMIRRORS = "\
ftp://.*/.*      http://downloads.yoctoproject.org/mirror/sources/ \n \
http://.*/.*     http://downloads.yoctoproject.org/mirror/sources/ \n \
https://.*/.*    http://downloads.yoctoproject.org/mirror/sources/ \n"

I am not sure, but this might force protocols. You could try a "bitbake 
-c fetchall universe"

I am going have Michael H. get you the information about where the the 
Downloads are.

Let me know how it goes.


Sau!
