Hmm not really a spoiler, basically it means that the jumphole/gate makes up part of the storyline. You have to be at a certain point of the storyline before it will let you through. Some jump holes and gates will be locked down permanently after story completion too.

As a *miniscule* spoiler, any of the ones that get permanently locked are only good for eye candy; they don't buy or sell anything and have no enemies to fight. Unless you're only in it for the sightseeing, you aren't missing much.

Are you still playing through the campaign missions, SpacePyrate? If so, it's like at the start of the game, when you weren't allowed out of New York because you didn't have proper clearence. They just want to gently introduce you to the new areas. I don't remember a jump-hole or gate that was restricted after the campaign was over, though. There's one you can't get to for mines, but I can't remember another. Gimme a system name if there is, anyone, and I'll look up the coordinates.

Tohoku is restricted after the story finishes.

So is alaska. Its impossible to get to the mission nomad systems, so they don't need to be locked.

Yeh, a few jump holes and gates are locked after you use them in the single player. Im not giving any examples though, As I guess that would be a spoiler.

Is it possible to unlock the locked gates and holes?

There is a mod that unlocks them. Look in the mod forum.
