I have mounted several SMB shares (folders are located on windows server) on my linux machine
gvfs-mount smb://user@domain@fileserver/sharedfolder
I can access files and edit them in vim, but vim enforces fileformat=unix on save. :set ff=dos affect anything. On local files there is no problem.
Update: It turned out that the cause was the old version Shougo/vimfiler plugin. It was not so clear for me at first because I very seldom use this plugin, not for opening remote files especially.
Just update Vimfiler plugin from repo. Preserving fileformat in Vim is working fine now.

What file paths does Vim show for opened files? – user1686 – 2016-05-23T10:39:11.053
File path showed in vim: '/run/user/1685001118/gvfs/smb-share:server=fileserver,share=sharedfolder,user=user%40domain/testpf.txt' – AMasz – 2016-05-23T10:49:10.350
That looks okay, I was thinking it might have been using its own SMB access instead of GNOME's. – user1686 – 2016-05-23T11:08:32.280
@AMasz : You can put
:au BufWrite *.* :set ff=unixin your~/.vimrc.And try. It might solve the problem – SibiCoder – 2016-05-28T13:38:15.173
