The RFC doesn't cover UNC paths; there's quite a lot open to interpretation.
The basic form is file://host/path , and in this case servername is a host, so
file://servername/prodidloc is reasonable.
file:///servername/prodidloc could be interpreted as having an empty host
component, so probably maps to a local path.
There's also an argument for file:////servername/prodidloc ("//servername"
being the "host" part, so 4 slashes) or even file://///servername/prodidloc
("//servername" is the start of a path which is valid on the local machine).
