Neither is a valid syslog facility. I would expect telnetd(8) to be
using the daemon facility. You can examine the telnetd source code or
run syslogd(8) with the -vv flags to see exactly the facilities and
levels it is using. A guess is that you'll end up with something like,

  !telnetd
  daemon.*

In syslog.conf(5).
