Estimating survival?

Hi, Sorry to trouble the list. I have a problem which I'm not sure how to resolve. I have a Cox model with 1 independent variable with 2 categories (and thus 2 survival curves on plotting survfit) How can I get an estimate of survival for each category at a particular time point, with standard error?
Here's an example
fit <- coxph( Surv(futime,fustat)~rx,data=ovarian)
summary( survfit( fit, newdata=list(rx=c(1,2))))
Call: survfit.coxph(object = fit, newdata = list(rx = c(1, 2)))
