You say /etc/resolv.conf is empty.. is it empty both before and after
connecting?

Are you inadvertently using the local bind but not forwarding requests to an
upstream nameserver?

My recommended path is to not let pppconfig do any resolv.conf munging, tell
it to leave DNS alone, then put "nameserver 127.0.0.1" in your
/etc/resolv.conf, and then tell bind to use the upstream nameservers as
forwarders.
