the flags for auth_check() are presented in the readme:

-
http://kamailio.org/docs/modules/4.2.x/modules/auth_db.html#auth_db.f.auth_check

For the challenge functions, the flags are detailed at:

-
http://kamailio.org/docs/modules/4.2.x/modules/auth.html#auth.f.www_challenge

If there is anything else to clarify, then ask more specific what part
is unclear, based on the docs listed above.

Cheers,
Daniel
