they'res always the old and tired hosts.deny file, just add the following to it:
telnet: partialhost.domain.com, somedomain.com, somedude.com
but, you want to restric to where everyone *BUT* someone can get into telnet, then you should use the following rule in hosts.allow:
telnet: hostname.com
and then set hosts.deny to:
telnet: ALL
by the way, they are in the /etc directory.

telnetrc
telnetrc(4) Kernel Interfaces Manual telnetrc(4)
NAME
telnetrc, .telnetrc - Specifies setup commands for a telnet session
SYNOPSIS
$HOME/.telnetrc
DESCRIPTION
The .telnetrc file contains the setup information for a telnet session. It is a hidden file in your home directory and must be readable by
the user logging in.
The file can consist of multiple entries for each remote host to which a user can connect. A remote host entry consists of multiple lines.
The first line is the name of a remote host. The subsequent lines must begin with blank spaces, and contain telnet subcommands. These sub-
commands are processed as though they were typed in manually. Lines beginning with a number sign (#) are comment lines. See telnet(1) for
a complete list of telnet subcommands.
To specify subcommands that apply to all systems, create an entry, using the word "DEFAULT" as the system name, and specify the telnet sub-
commands in the subsequent lines.
EXAMPLES
The following shows a sample .telnetrc file:
# Beginning of telnetrc file # Default subcommands that apply to all systems DEFAULT
environ undefine USER # First system entry system1
set echo
toggle crlf # Second system entry system2
set echo
mode line
toggle crlf
FILES
User-customized telnet startup values.
