Pppconfig creates a resolv.conf file in /etc/ppp/resolv for each provider. The /etc/ppp/ip-up.d/0dns-up script moves /etc/resolv.conf out of the way and the appropriate file from /etc/ppp/resolv in when a ppp connection comes up. /etc/ppp/ip-down.d moves the original resolv.conf back when ppp goes down. You can edit the files in /etc/ppp/resolv, customising them by adding search directives, etc. This allows you to have a resolv.conf suitable for use when ppp is down, and one customized for each provider when ppp is up.
