Java and C random conversions

Question

I have the following code in C (gcc compiler)
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main()
     int i = 9;                    
     srandom(5412);               
     while (i-- > 0) {
          printf("%d\n", random()%6);     
     return 0;
I wanna convert the above code into Java so I program the following:
import java.util.*;
public class Generator{
     public static void main(String argv[]){
          Random a=new Random();
          a.setSeed(5412);
          int azar;
          for (int i=0;i<9;i++){
               azar=(int)(a.nextInt(6));
               System.out.println(azar);
But the results that I have get are different, when they should be the same.
Any suggestion?

somebody could give some theoretical reason why a Random number generated in Java with the same seed is different than a C generated one?They theoretically could be different if they use the seed in different ways, or use a different algorithm to generate the random number. You have already been told this several times.
or they should be the same?Probably not.
Thanks to everybody that is helping me until now
