You appear not to be initializing the random seed in your code: the manual 
says:

   The C code behind @R{}'s @[EMAIL PROTECTED] functions can be accessed by
   including the header file @file{Rmath.h}; @xref{Distribution
   functions}.  Those calls generate a single variate and should also be
   enclosed in calls to @code{GetRNGstate} and @code{PutRNGstate}.

Why have you not done so?
