Port communication problems

A shot in the dark...

We are having a very strange and trouble-some problem with communications with 
another site that I was wondering if anyone would have any insight into. The 
site on the other end (servers of some type) claims that they are sending us 
(an AS400) a Finish Acknowledgment packet when the communication is complete 
They then say the host should be responding with just an Acknowledgment packet, 
instead, the host is responding with a Reset Acknowledgment packet - this is 
unexpected and causing a packet to be dropped that it is not expecting. From 
what I understand, the Reset Acknowledgment is the Hosts way of saying that its 
killing communications and doesn't want to talk any more.
We are on v4r5 and talking via a T1.

Anybody have any ideas what might be causing something like this?

This is the best I could describe...does it make any sense or shed any light on 
our dilemma?...TM
