I'm trying to figure out if this is normal. Because without errors, a connection should be terminated by:

FIN ->
<- ACK
<- FIN
ACK ->

I get this at the end of a TCP connection (over SSL, but i also get it with non-encrypted):

         From     To
1494    server  client  TCP search-agent > 59185 [PSH, ACK] Seq=25974 Ack=49460 Win=63784 Len=50
1495    client  server  TCP 59185 > search-agent [ACK] Seq=49460 Ack=26024 Win=63565 Len=0
1496    client  server  TCP 59185 > search-agent [PSH, ACK] Seq=49460 Ack=26024 Win=63565 Len=23
1497    client  server  TCP 59185 > search-agent [FIN, ACK] Seq=49483 Ack=26024 Win=63565 Len=0
1498    server  client  TCP search-agent > 59185 [PSH, ACK] Seq=26024 Ack=49484 Win=63784 Len=23
1499    client  server  TCP 59185 > search-agent [RST, ACK] Seq=49484 Ack=26047 Win=0 Len=0

The client exits normally and reaches socket.close, shouldn't then the connection be shut down normally, without a reset?

I can't find anything about the TCP streams of java on google...

Here is my code:

            }
            catch(SSLException sslEx)
            {

            }

            try {
