Sotiris,
R is generally fairly graceful about FORTRAN in linux; Windows is
another matter. For example, R/linux will allow you to write to the R
console as a file device without using the special I/O routines often
needed in R. There are many very complicated FORTRAN routines currently
running in libraries where you don't know you're running FORTRAN.
Does your code compile successfully to a shared object?
R CMD SHLIB *.f
If so, does it fail when you try to dyn.load? Or does it fail at
run time when you invoke the function? If the last step is the problem,
make very sure that you cast your R variables explicitly in your
.Fortran call to make sure that the variable sizes in memory are correct.
Please give us much more complete information about the error or we
will be unable to help.
Dave R.

this because I don't know if R is compatible with more complicated Fortran
subroutines.
