If I hear you right, you're trying to connect to site2 over the
internet, and also connect to loc2 through the connection on site2.
SSH can create a tunnel itself. You could use something like:
'ssh -L 2200:loc2:22 user@site2'
This would connect you to a shell on site2. Then on your machine open
another terminal and type:
'ssh -p 2200 user@localhost' which would connect to loc2 port 22 using
the connection on site2. If you try to close the connection to site2, it
won't work since you're still connected to loc2.
ssh also supports forwarding a port on the remote server using -R, but
I'm led to believe you are trying to limit the connections that get
through the site2 to loc2 and -L requires you (or someone else) to be on
local system.
In putty this same feature is configured under Connection > SSH > Tunnels.
