Depending on your OS, one solution is to map the server folder to a network drive and assign it a letter. That way you can use a normal path name and not some off the wall server location.

I have a server folder mapped to Y:\  

You can do :

>> load 'Y:\foldername1\foldername2\filename.mat'  

and it should work.
