Since resolv.conf doesn't directly have anything to do with ppp you would
probably have to have some kind of script in /etc/ppp/ip-up.d that would
check the new ip address and rotate resolv.conf's based on that. So you
would have:
/etc/resolv.conf.isp1
/etc/resolv.conf.isp2
/etc/resolv.conf
the script would check the ip and do a
`cp -f /etc/resolv.conf.isp? /etc/resolv.conf'
depending on which isp you connected to.
There may be an easier way, but this is off the top of my head.
