I implemented finding servers by enumerating the container WNet
resources from the top level and added enumerating connected disk
resources.  The latter is only enabled for WebDAV right now since
connected resources are a subset of all shared resources and only WebDAV
is known (yet!) to suffer from the problem.

Give the next test release cygwin-3.6.0-0.406.g15b52ba69d64 a try,
please.

This is still something I'd like to learn...
