If you're new to OpenNMS, you should check out this excellent page,
compiled by TheViper and others:

http://opennms.org/index.php/Docu-overview

It's a "Greatest Hits" of the OpenNMS site, and should have a lot of
answers to your questions on getting OpenNMS up and running.

As for monitoring your websites, you should check out this:

http://opennms.org/index.php/HTTP_monitor

There is a sample config on there that shows you how to monitor
virtual hosts.  If you need to get more in-depth or have a sequence of
pages to monitor, you should take a look at the PSM:

http://opennms.org/index.php/PSM_Setup

AFAIK, it's only in the latest trunk code, but it's definitely worth
checking out.
